Following fermentation the wine is aged on fine lees in concrete eggs for 3 months with weekly batonnage (stirring) to give the wine added texture, prior to a further 6 – 8 months in old oak prior to release.

It a continental semi-desert environment characterised by light frosts and high levels of sunshine. Average annual rainfall is 200mm, essentially concentrated in summer.

Chenin Blanc
The Carte d'Or Coteaux du Layon from Baumard has a very attractive honeyed nose, with lifted yellow fruits and more golden tropical elements such as mango, guava and pineapple. It has a particularly tropical character and a very fresh feel on the palate, with steely minerality and a zippy background acidity giving invigorating tartness to keep the wine luscious and buoyant. The rounded, approachable finish has good length.
