AboutLa Grange Tiphaine
La Grange Tiphaine is the five-generation family estate of Coralie and Damien Delecheneau, based in Amboise with vineyards across Montlouis-sur-Loire, Touraine-Amboise and Touraine. Damien assumed direction of the domaine with the 2002 harvest, and Coralie joined full-time in 2008 after work in wine education and experience abroad. The couple divide the vineyard, cellar and business work, making key decisions together.
Roughly fifteen hectares of clay-and-flint soils carry Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon, Côt, Gamay and Cabernet Franc, including some very old vines. The estate farms organically and has been certified by Biodyvin since 2014. Cellar work includes indigenous-yeast fermentation.

French White
Lemon, green apple and pear lead, followed by gooseberry, orange blossom and a quiet herbal note. The palate is dry, crisp and smooth, with bright citrus, fine mineral tension and an easy medium-bodied flow. A touch of mandarin and fresh herbs broadens the clean finish, making it a natural match for shellfish or goat cheese.
