Eric Marchant spent his childhood in his father Pierres vineyards, observing and helping where he could. His inherited love of the land led him to study viticulture, and since 1998, along with the help of his brother Pascal, he makes wines combining traditional and modern practices. Their vines have an average age of 25 years, allowing grapes to ripen with greater complexity, and their minimal intervention approach means the resulting wines have deliciously pure fruity flavour. This has aromatic notes of citrus, blackcurrant leaf and gooseberry. The finish is elegant and long with hints of flinty minerality and ripe apple. Its crisp and zingy character makes it a great choice for a goats cheese and apple salad.
