PARNAY
Parnay
Troglo Phil took us on a jaunt through the countryside to look for a wine co-operative where we could get in on the ground floor of the next big thing. We never found the co-operative despite multiple passes through the villages of Saumur-Chamipgny on the D147: Souzay, Champigny, and a host of unnamed hamlets.
We ended up at the Chateau de Parnay, the place where Antoine Cristal started it all. We sampled their 2009s and 2010s and a rosé. Phil bought a box (un cubi) of the Saumur-Champigny to take back home.
