Les Granges belongs firmly to the first group: an entry-level bottling designed for early drinking, drawn mostly from the estate's younger vines, planted between 1985 and 1988 on the alluvial gravel terraces beside the river. Gravel warms quickly and drains freely, which is what gives the cuvée its supple, fruit-forward character. The fruit is picked by hand and ferments cool for two weeks in cement tanks, then is raised for seven to ten months, also in cement, so no oak enters the picture at any stage. The vineyards are certified organic. Chinon's most famous son, François Rabelais, advised drinking before the thirst arrives; this is a wine for that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrink over the next three or four years. Serve at 16-18°C, or lightly chilled, with charcuterie, roast chicken or a goat's cheese salad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
