The modest and deep thinking Claude Papin is a master of Chenin Blanc in all its guises from bone dry to lusciously sweet. His focus is to produce wines which truly reflect their individual origins alongside their varietal character. Claude's two sons René and Christophe, are taking more responsibility, for the cellar and vineyards respectively, and on the evidence of recent tastings the transition to the new generation will ensure the integrity and quality of these complex and diverse wines.
