Domaine du Collier Saumur Blanc
Antoine Foucault is the son of the late Charly Foucault of the famed Foucault brothers behind Clos Rougeard. In 1999, with his partner Caroline, he founded Domaine du Collier, which takes its name from Place du Collier where the family home is located.
Vineyards are farmed organically and a natural approach is carried into the cellar with a commitment to wild yeast fermentation, extended ageing without racking in a very cold underground cellar, and zero sulfur until bottling.
Cabernet Franc devotees and Chenin cognoscenti alike admire these wines for their power, mineral character, and ethereal lift.
This is from all of his Chenin vines not in Charpentrie. Predominantly in and around the Ripaille site. Vines aged 25 to 75 years. Generally this wine is a little less dense than the Charpentrie. Slightly more ethereal and less powerful.
