Grolleau / Gamay
Un Ete Partage 2022
Laurent Saillard

Grape Variety: 70% Grolleau, 30% Gamay

Producer: Laurent Saillard

Region: Loir-et-Cher, Loire, France

Wild Scale: 3/5

Vegan friendly wine

Winemaking: Organic Grolleau and Gamay grapes were harvested by hand. Fermentation with indigenous yeast in stainless steel tanks. Bottled with no fining, filtration or added sulphur.

This Wine: This is a light red wine perfect for the warmer months. Delicate but complex notes of fresh red fruit, earthiness and a hint of spice. Doesn't necessarily require food and should be drunk slightly cooler than room temperature. 10.5% alcohol.

Notes on the Winemaker: Laurent Saillard worked in the restaurant world before he found his calling in natural wine. He has created quite a buzz for himself in the eastern part of the Loire valley where he works with native grape varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Pineau d'Aunis and Gamay.
