    In a few words ...

    "The toastiness is very light but present, with a fine touch of smoke that the slightly sappy fruitiness counterbalances. Iodized and finely warm in a subtle balance." Gault Millau.

    "Incontournable, Chantegrive produit de très bons vins, en rouge comme en blanc, typés, expressifs, aromatiques et toujours équilibrés."
