The most coveted of the Foreau’s parcels is Les Perruches (its name stemming from the terroir, perruches, which consists of small clusters of flint mixed with clay, covering a layer of limestone or tuffeau). This parcel is planted on the première côte and located between the vineyards of Le Mont to the west and Les Girardières to the east.
Harvested by hand, the Chenin blanc grapes are picked in stages, according to the desired residual sugar levels – sec, demi-sec and moelleux. Once at the cellar, all pressing is done with pneumatic presses, before the run-off juice goes to 300-litre barrels to undergo fermentation.
