Maison Darragon Vouvray A.O.C Le Haut des Ruettes 2021

The Darragon family have been winegrowers in Vouvray for nine generations (since 1761). Over time, they have put down deep roots in the Vouvray region, passing down their know-how to obtain a high-quality product. The vineyard is located between the village of Vouvray and the border of the municipality of Vernou-sur-Brenne. The estate now covers 40 hectares (99 acres).

Tasting Notes – The brilliant and bright pale-yellow colour with golden glints leads to a nose combining the sweetness of pale-fleshed fruit with that of honeyed flowers. Delicately tender and sweet on the palate, with a good balance of sweetness and freshness. Long and harmonious finish. Ideal serving temperature: 10°C / 50°.

Awards – 95 Points Decanter DWWA 2023 Gold Medal:” A simmering delight of bright apple and delicate floral aromas; intense and fresh with a luscious, rich texture and a spicy undercurrent; long and elegant.”
