"A success for this impeccably silky Chenin!
Le Peu Morier, a fresh, mineral Vouvray, presents a nose of white fruit and flowers. Rich on the palate, the fruit is supported by a gentle woodiness, with a superb balance on the finish. A great white that can wait a few years in the cellar!

Rated (guide 2025) 92/100 Favorite (Vintage 2022)
Domaine rated (guide 2025) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winemakers with good production levels, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the domain :
The discreet Vincent Carême, who also produces steen (the local name for chenin) in South Africa under the name Terre Brûlée (40,000 bottles a year), is now one of the leading lights of the Vouvray appellation. On his 17.5 hectares of chenin vines planted on the flinty clays of Vernou-sur-Brenne and Nozay, his meticulous organic viticulture (certified in 2007) ensures healthy, brilliant grapes in the cellar. This forty-something tends towards increasingly dry wines, but his Le Peu Morier and Tendre energetically integrate residual sugars, offering saline, sapid whites. The demands are taken even further with the start of biodynamic treatments, and ageing in old barrels (400 l) is increasingly precise. These wines are very meticulous.
