Château Yvonne - Saumur-Champigny - Ile 4 sous 2022

Like the 2019, the 2022 vintage Autour de Jonquières du Mas Jullien is built for cellaring. Like all vintages, you'll have to be patient and wait a decade or so to enjoy this wine, which develops notes of red fruits and light spices. A benchmark for the region.

The cuvée le Petit Chemarin from domaine François Crochet has a beautifully intense nose with notes of yellow fruit and a few floral touches. The palate is harmonious, full of fruit, a well-presented minerality with a saline finish. A great wine!

Le Grand Vin Blanc du Château Cazebonne is a cuvée made from Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc grapes, emblematic of the Graves region. This organic white wine is distinguished by its elegance, complexity and finesse. The grapes are harvested at perfect ripeness to capture all their freshness and aromatic richness. Grand Vin Blanc offers subtle floral aromas mingled with notes of citrus and white-fleshed fruit, such as peach and pear. On the palate, it has a lovely liveliness with a smooth texture, brought about by barrel aging that adds depth and toasty notes.

The Château Yvonne red is a great Saumur - Champigny, with great delicacy, fine tannins and great elegance. It features notes of red fruits and has a good ageing potential of around ten years. Bravo.

This is one of the fine cuvées from Château Yvonne in white that has made the estate's letters of nobility. In 2022, the wine is rich with notes of citrus and yellow peach. The woodiness will mellow after a few years of cellaring to give this great wine its full complexity.

In a very successful 2022 vintage, the château Yvonne has produced a superb cuvée La Folie. The wine is rich, with very intense fruit. As always with this cuvée, we recommend decanting 2 hours before tasting, or storing for 3 to 5 years in a temperature-stable, high-hygrometry cellar.
