CHINON ROUGE DPO DOMAINE LEON

12,00 € incl. VAT

Chinon, the wine so loved by François Rabelais, is made from the Breton grape variety. Its tannins are straightforward and its freshness is typical of the Loire region. Angélique Léon offers a classic cuvée, typical of its grape variety and terroir
She settled in Savigny-en-Véron, taking over her parents’ estate. The adventure began with its first vintage in 2002.
She loves the different jobs she does as the seasons go by: she works the vines, produces the grapes and vinifies them, using no artificial methods, harvesting by hand… this naturally led her to convert the vineyard to organic farming in 2018. Situated to the west of the appellation, at the confluence of the Loire and Vienne rivers, it produces mainly red wines. She’s outdoors and independent, and life in the fresh air gives her balance.
