The soil where these vines are planted is composed of sands rich in flint allowing good maturity of the grapes. The harvest is carried out manually to preserve the integrity of the grapes. The grapes are then delicately pressed after skin maceration, the juices are cold settling and remain in contact with their lees for 4 days to enrich themselves. The fermentations are then launched with indigenous yeasts at 18 ° C. The wines are aged in vats for 4 months with regular stirring. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood pairing: \u003c\/strong\u003eFish in a white sauce, Slab of salmon, White meat in a sauce, Goats cheese\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Domain:\u003c\/strong\u003e Our Domain is the work of four generations. My Great grandfather Georges Sauvète planted the first stock in 1905, and Roland, followed by Michel, went on to enlarge the vineyard between 1930 and 1975. I, Jérôme, came in with my father Michel in 1980. In 1986 my wife Dominique joined me. Together we have put all our passion and energy into building up and extending the Domain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, we have a single shared ambition – to produce authentic wines that express the subtleties of our terroir to the very depths of its soul.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeally located on the heights of the Toucheronde hillsides overlooking the Cher, and on the plateau overhanging the village of Monthou-sur-Cher, our vineyards now cover some 16 hectares. 7.5 hectares are given over to Sauvignon, Chenin and Chardonnay vines for white wines, while the remaining 8.5 hectares are devoted to Gamay, Malbec, Cabernet and Pineau d’Aunis vines, for red wines and rosés.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur vineyards have all the advantages they could ask for – exceptional geographical location, rich and varied soils, and just the right climate and amount of sunshine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe land devoted to our white wines lies on the Mardelle and Bocagerie plateaux, windblown sands with argilo-siliceous subsoil ideal for the crispness of our Sauvignon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the heights of the Sansuette and Rouère slopes, sandy surface soil rich in flint ensures the grapes come to full ripeness, giving our “Oneiros” its delicate mineral character. A small piece of land on the edge of La Retraite woods is consecrated to another of our treasures – “Confidence”.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dionysos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40551003750553,"sku":"126636","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0149\/9247\/4212\/files\/f8c8d57e6c77168ed50876a44a93e9c88509b914.png?v=1774033004","url":"https:\/\/arrowine.com\/products\/domaine-sauvete-oneiros-touraine-chenonceaux-2020","provider":"Arrowine \u0026 Cheese","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
