Cellar: Frantz Saumon

Frantz Saumon before being a well-known winegrower was a forest guard before in Canada and then in France. Then, in 2001, it is known that Christian Chaussard of Domaine Le Briseau, one of the greatest experts in French natural wine, learns everything from him. Buy a small estate consisting of six hectares of vineyard planted in Chenin Blanc where the vineyards have an average age of thirty years with some even reaching the age of one hundred. The peculiarity of this vineyard is that it is on five different terrains so that wines are completely different. Frantz in the cellar carries out only the necessary interventions, fermentations are spontaneous, uses only native yeasts and refinements occur only in steel tanks and wooden barrels of various sizes. The wines of Frantz Saumon are fresh, inviting with a light minerality and year after year its wines are always better.
