2024 Chateau Yvonne Saumur Blanc, Loire, France Robert Ampeau planted to high densityThe Yvonne Blanc was one of the 2 original cuves produced at the domaine. Mathieu continued the same high quality work in the vineyard and cellar, but drastically reduced the amount of new oak used for elevage. While most fans of Saumur Blanc know about Brz, Yvonne Blanc will likely be the first introduction to the whites of La Cte, the exceptional tuffeau terroir along the Loire river in Parnay.
