Craie is a single vineyard wine, aged in jars for 2 to 3 years. It comes from the "Coulée d'Arthenay" plot, with a poor Turonian chalk soil.

This Saumur Puy-Notre-Dame is a brightly colored wine with golden hues and sweet aromas of white flowers, hawthorn and quince.

Very fresh in the mouth, it has a beautiful harmony of taste and a silky finish.
