Anne-Sophie & Jean-François Quénard - Chignin-Bergeron - Chez Les Béroux 2021

IN CONVERSION TO ORGANIC FARMING

Key words: Fruity / Gourmet / Round

The wine: Chez Les Béroux is a Chignin-Bergeron very gourmand highlighting the charming characteristics of the Roussanne grape variety. On the nose, beautiful fruity aromas are presented and a certain roundness can be perceived. The palate is consistent with notes of ripe fruit (peach, apricot, pear, green apple, citrus) highlighted by a hint of minerality as well as a touch of butter. The tasting concludes with a very nice length. Another completely successful vintage from the Quénard family!

The estate: If the Quénards are numerous in the village of Chignin, the wines of Jean-François and his daughter Anne-Sophie are easily distinguished by their quality. Out of a total of almost 18 hectares, 12 are planted with white varieties (notably Jacquère and Roussanne) and a little more than 5 with red varieties (Mondeuse, Gamay, Pinot noir, Persan). The whole is in the process of being converted to organic farming and the vinification of the vintages is very minimalist at the estate in order to let all the terroir express itself. Thus, the yeasts used are indigenous and sulphites are very low-dosed. Discover this beautiful Savoyard estate which will take you on a journey through their different quality vintages !
