This is what happened to Alain Robert in 1992, when enlarging the estate&#8217;s rock-hewn cellar. In 2013, to mark their new partnership, Catherine and Cyril decided to create a new wine and give it the name <g id=\"gid_1\">Ammonite<\/g>.<br \/>\nThis wine is made from grapes grown on clay and flint soils and come from the oldest vines of the estate. They are picked by hand and carefully sorted on tables. The wine is aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, and finally reveals its terroir of origin and the winegrower&#8217;s know-how.  <\/p>\n<p><u>The winemaker&#8217;s suggestion<\/u>: for this Chenin Blanc wine that is full of character, you may try daring pairings such as poultry served with a creamy sauce, sweetbread or a Saint Pierre fillet served with by carrots and turmeric.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Serve chilled (9\/11 \u00b0 C) \u2013 Keep for 7 to 15 years<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Our dry Vouvray Ammonite 2016 was tasted and commented on by Manuel Peyrondet, Meilleur sommelier de France 2008 et Meilleur Ouvrier of France 2011.
