Domaine Grange Tiphaine is a 15-hectare family domain split between Montlouis-sur-Loire, Touraine and Touraine-Ambroise. The story of the domain goes back to the 19th century, when the Delecheneau family grew a variety of crops on the land. The domain was handed down from generation to generation, until Coralie and Damien Delecheneau’s arrival in 2002. They had met in Bordeaux. Damien manages the vine and the cellar, while Coralie takes care of admin and sales. The domain obtained organic certification in 2007 and biodynamic in 2014. The domain owns excellent vineyards of old vines, of which some are 100 years old. The work in the cellar is precise, and élevages are carried out in concrete vats and old casks. Wines from La Grange Tiphaine have beautiful purity and elegance. A rising star of the Loire.

Bel-Air is a dry white wine from the Touraine-Amboise appellation. Its 70-year-old vines face south-east and grow in red clay soil on chalky rock. The Chenin grapes are harvested by hand and thoroughly sorted in the vineyard before being taken to the winery. There they undergo a long and slow pressing to preserve their freshness. Wild yeasts commence fermentation and the wine is then matured on fine lees for 3 months in concrete vats.
This cuvée is made to offer fruity indulgence and great freshness. In the glass it has a pale, yellow colour, giving off notes of crisp, white fruit (apple, pear), freshy fruit (peach), yellow flowers, and minerals. It has a fresh and chalky finish. We recommend opening it half an hour before serving with a simple, delicate dish such as freshwater fish or goats’ cheese tart.
