history
It was in 1989 that the adventure of the Vignobles du Paradis began, with the ESAT les Chevaux Blancs planting from the 1st hectare to the Clos de la Niverdière. The following year the planting of vines continued, with the installation of a first winery on the Clos. The Vignobles du Paradis started with the plantation of 2 ha. Today the estate cultivates 35 hectares of AOC Chinon red and rosé and soon white.
Vineyard
The vineyard is located near Chinon, a small picturesque town of 9000 inhabitants, situated near the Loire River, and birthplace of Rabelais, a famous French philosopher and writer of the Renaissance.
Terroir : Clay and sandy soils
Everything is done (pruning, soil work, disbudding, etc.) to give the best quality grapes possible.
Winemaking
This cuvée is vinified without the addition of sulfites. The grapes are totally destemmed and the fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 75° F. Traditional maceration of 15 days, light pumping over.
Tasting notes
Dark and purple color. The powerful and floral nose seduces with its notes of violet, ripe fruit and grilled bell pepper. The mouth is ample, structured, balanced by its supple and salivating tannins.
Food pairing
Ideal on white meats, charcuteries, grilled and roasted meat and salads, but also on Asian cuisine.
Aging potential
Enjoy all year long, 2 to 3 years
