Clos Thierrière is a new project in Vouvray, established by young brothers Guillaume and Baptiste Frey, focusing on Chenin Blanc from tuffeau limestone soils. The wines are shaped by the expressions of the varied terroirs of red clay, flint and limestone.
Viticulture >
This parcel is located on the northern slope of the municipality and is composed of three neighbouring plots. It rests on red clays and houses vines about forty years old.
Historically known as "Parakeets", this plot is now called "Petrichor", in reference to the smell of nature after a rain. It is a memory of a rainy harvest, and this smell is particularly revealed in this type of soil.
