Appellation Valençay
The Valençay AOC, land of vines for almost 2000 years
The Valençay appellation covers 14 communes in Indre and one in Loir-et-Cher. The parcels are located on 2400 hectares of the left bank of the Cher. The AOC was recognised in 2004, however, written evidence of the presence of vines as early as 965, making Valençay a recognised wine-growing area.
Valençay wines come in three colours and are produced from a variety of blended grape varieties: the cabernet franc, cabernet-sauvignon, chardonnay, côt, gamay, malbec, pinot noir and sauvignon.
The vineyard benefits from a temperate oceanic climate, and soils composed of clay or sand and gravel. It is this terroir that gives the wines of Valençay their special characteristics.
Taste the three colours of Valençay
AOC Valençay Red
This wine develops a light red colour, with some purple highlights. The nose is frank on red fruits, accompanied by spicy notes. The palate is tannic, dense and fine. It is a perfect match for red meats in sauce, or simply grilled, it can also be paired with Valençay cheese.AOC Valençay Rosé
A rosé with a pale dress, which reveals fruity fragrances. On the palate, one is seduced by the freshness and delicacy of this wine. It can be enjoyed with fine charcuterie, or exotic dishes.AOC Valençay Blanc
Valençay Blanc has a greenish-yellow coat. The nose diffuses floral, blackcurrant bud and broom scents, as well as citrus and exotic fruit. The palate is vivid, supple, fresh, with a mineral finish. This is a white wine that will go wonderfully with fish and shellfish, not forgetting Valençay, a goat's cheese from the same terroir as the wine.
