Harvested on hard limestone and flint, located near the small church of Thauvenay, the village which its name comes from. This wine is to drink in its 4 first years. Its vivacity and freshness combined with its great minerality perfectly matches seafood platters and shellfish. Excellent as an aperitif, it could also go along with a goat cheese, snack, duck rilllettes or rabbit terrine. With asparagus and raw fish, cooked in a court-bouillon or marinated, it will be a perfect match as well.
