  • EYE: Beautiful intense and deep ruby red color, reflecting its exceptional quality.

  • MOUTH: This wine offers a silky and velvety texture with perfectly integrated tannins. The fruity flavors express themselves intensely, highlighting the succulence of ripe red fruits. Spicy notes reminiscent of black pepper, tobacco, and cedar enrich the aromatic palette. The balance between freshness and structure is remarkable, thanks to lively acidity and a persistent and long-lasting finish.

In short: The Saumur-Champigny "Les Poyeux" 2017 by Antoine Sanzay is a complex and captivating red wine. It offers a rich aromatic palette of red fruits, spices, and woody notes.

100% organic winemaking in Varrains

 

Since 1999, Antoine Sanzay has taken care of the family vineyard he's inherited from his grandparents, in the village of Varrains (Loire Valley, western France). With tireless passion, he cultivates the soil of his 11 hectares of Saumur and Saumur-Champigny, like six generations of vintners before him. His wines, which he started producing at the estate in 2002, are purely organic.

Antoine has a deep respect for the vineyard, which you can almost taste when you open one of his bottles. He often jokes about using antiquated, pre-war methods, but one must admit they clearly bear fruits! It is a real labor of love for him and it doesn't stop in the vineyard: Antoine uses natural yeasts in the wine making process, works with the lees, values low yields...

Former rising star in the Saumur community, Antoine has now become a well-respected wine maker. He's especially known for his 4 hectares of "Poyeux", a terroir very close to the famous Clos Rougeard, formerly owned by the Foucault Brothers (who were organic wine precursors). Because of that, Antoine is also often seen as one of their spiritual successors.
