Domaine Gérard Boulay | France | Loire |
Vineyard | Boulay farms two parcels in this terroir, including one within the original Clos of the vineyard. Vines on this slope of Kimmeridgian limestone and clay (terre blanches) are aged between 30 and an incredible 110 years! The soils here are particularly rocky and strewn with fossils, much like parts of Chablis. These textured soils make this parcel very difficult to farm. A second, even steeper parcel lies closer to the village. |
