Sophie and Thierry Chardon of L'Aumonier have been based in Touraine since 1996, working with the Sauvignon Blanc the area is famed for as well as Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay, Côt (Malbec), Gamay and Cabernet Franc. Farming has been organic since 2006 and biodynamic since 2021 with the soil a mixture of the argile and silex.
Les Millions is a new cuvée from L'Aumonier made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes macerated on skins for 2 weeks. The result is a savoury and structured orange wine with preserved citrus, toasted almond and beguiling spice aromas. Lightly grippy on the palate with fine acidity, this is a great food wine.
