Petit Metris Coteaux du Layon Chaume 1er Cru is a sweet white wine from the Loire Valley in France, made from Chenin Blanc. The 2018 is an intense gold. It opens with orange peel, acacia flowers, pine and beeswax, with a delicate hint of wood. On the palate it shows fresh exotic fruit, baked apple, apricot and almond, with sweet and sour tones and a persistent finish.
Domaine du Petit Métris sits at the top of a hillside overlooking Saint Aubin, with the hamlet of Grand Beauvais nestled in the vineyards. It is the family's home and the heart of the estate. Their great-grandparents acquired the first parcels around 1830, and the oldest parcel dates to 1905. The vineyard is a steep, south-facing hillside of stony clay, where the shelter of the relief encourages passerillage and botrytis, giving the wines their concentration.
