Les Saulaies - Damien Bureau

Les Saulaies by Damien Bureau is a wine with a smooth and fruity character, fresh and extremely pleasant. Its elegant aromatic complexity and good acidity will captivate any good drinker. Obtained from 100% chenin blanc grapes, which are left to ferment spontaneously and then matured on the fine lees in steel for approximately two months.

Service

We taste it 8/10° C. It is recommended to serve it in tulip glasses. Wine to be drunk immediately but left a few years in the cellar can give great emotions.

Pairings

Excellent as an aperitif, paired with fish starters, main courses of fish, ideal pairing with fois gras tartare.

Winery:  Damien Bureau

The Damien Bureau winery is located in Champ-sur-Layon, in the Loire. Over time, Damien has earned a reputation as one of Anjou's most interesting vignerons. His adventure in the world of wine began in the early 2000s, when he began collaborating with some domaines scattered throughout France. But it was only after meeting Sebastien Dervieux in 2006 that he decided to put down roots in Anjou Today Damien owns approximately 4 hectares, mainly cultivated with Pineau d'Aunis, Chenin Blanc and Grolleau plants. The wines are produced without any added chemicals, and all mature in fiberglass with the exception of sweet wines which mature in barrels. His production is small and uncompromising, producing wines of pure integrity that have extraordinary strength and vitality. As well as tending to his vineyards, he has also taken over the running of the premium wine fair, Les Anonymes, in Angers.
