This Grand Cru Valmur is located between the villages of Clots, Vaudésir and Grenouilles. It benefits from a south-east sun exposure that brings freshness and minerality to the wine.
Valmur takes its name from 'Meures' - the old French name for mulberry fruit or the berries of a bramble. It is likely that this spot was rich in mulberry trees or brambles, and was then called 'Vallee aux meures' (Meures Valley), and later 'Valmur'.
The wine shows a pale golor and rich and intense floral aromas. The palate is well-structured and generous with subtle notes of dried fruits and honey. A long mineral finish.
