Loire, Château de Parnay, Clos d'Entre les Murs, AOC Saumur, Blanc
Great history linked to Antoine Cristal : a famous winemaker from the Loire Valley in the early 1900's, who invented a singular growing technique : roots of the vines are on one side a wall (in the shadow), while the vines goes through the wall and the "head" is in the sun, and heated in the night by the stone of the wall. Where is this technique is being used , the plot of vine is called Clos d'Entre. This single vineyard is very specific to Château de Parnay, which has the same owner as Château de Princé
Presentation
This cuvée takes its name from the plot of land where it is produced. The ingenuity of its creator, Antoine Cristal, relies on using the north side to take advantage of the cool and damp ground, as well as the south side to benefit from the heat. The vine goes through a wall that gives the heat back at night, and in this way, they always have their "feet in the shade and their bellies in the sun".
