Champalou Les Fondraux Vouvray 2019
White blossom flowers are a stand out combining balance, freshness, roundness, minerality and liveliness. Young, Fondraux are pleasant with river fish, cold meats, goat cheese and sweet and savory cuisine. Then, as it ripens for a few years, the flavors fit perfectly with spicy dishes and white meats.
A family estate since 1984. Currently, 25 hectares are cultivated according to sustainable viticulture. The production is distributed in around twenty countries around the world.
Both children winemakers – Catherine is part of the 12 th generation of winemakers on Vouvray and Didier of the 6 th in the Poitou! – Catherine and Didier Champalou from the outset wanted to lead their estate in a direction that was not at all that of the appellation at the time: to allow the singularity of each terroir to express itself thanks to a cuvée that is dedicated. And this mainly in natural wine (80%) while sparkling wines were already the main production (75%) of the AOC.
In a few years, they went from a few hectares to around twenty. Catherine and Didier, long before the ecological movement, put the work of the vineyard in their priority and have always put forward a peasant viticulture, respectful of the environment and sustainable as the basis of a good wine.
