Those wines are realized as soon as the alcoholic potential of the harvesting exceeds 14°. Characterised by a wonderful balance between alcohol, sugar and acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProducer: One of the oldest and most celebrated domaines in Savennieres, Chateau d’Épire is rich in history, not only for its fabulous architectural rendition of the Petit Trianon of Versailles, but most especially for its exquisite wines. Savennieres is situated just southwest of Angers, on the north bank of the Loire River. Vines have been cultivated there since the time of the Romans. The Plantagenet dynasty allowed for the first exports of the wine to be sent to Great Britian in the 11th century. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe domaine itself has been in the Bizard family continuously since the 17th century. The most recent owners and caretakers of the land are Monsieur and Madame Luc Bizard. They own eleven hectares, nine of which are entirely dedicated to the cultivation of Pineau de la Loire, known today as Chenin Blanc. The chateau is exquisite, but the piece de resistance is their winery, formerly a Romanesque chapel, which is from the 12th century. Truly a blessed wine!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chateau d'Epire","offers":[{"title":"1 \/ 750ml \/ White","offer_id":1744385605657,"sku":"2169680-1","price":16.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12 \/ 750ml \/ White","offer_id":1744385671193,"sku":"2169680-1","price":16.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1780\/9427\/products\/Chateau_d_Epire_Savennieres_Moelleux_2015.jpg?v=1567021507","url":"https:\/\/winechateau.com\/products\/chateau-depire-savennieres-moelleux-2015","provider":"Wine Chateau","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
