Berrye’s Saumur Blanc, “Les Bourgères” is a Chenin Blanc harvested from vines planted in 1993 on gentle to medium-sloped, south-facing plots at 80-100 meters altitude (30-50 meters higher than the average of Saumur and Saumur-Champigny) on white tuffeau limestone bedrock with a relatively thin topsoil of calcareous silt, sand and clay.
