Nathalie and Emmanuel Grand describe their veil-aged whites as the identity of the house, made by the Grand and Morin families for ten generations. The veil gives walnut, almond and spice, and the Chateau-Chalon takes the full seven years.

  • Chicken with morels
    The regional dish for a seven-year veil-aged Savagnin.
