Winemaking: Organic Chenin Blanc grapes from old vines (up to 90 years) were hand harvested and directly pressed. Spontaneously fermented with indigenous yeast. Aged in old oak barrels for 15 months. Bottled with no filtration, fining or added sulphur.
This Wine: Natural white wine from an iconic winemaker in the Loire valley. Reported as a classic vintage and made from Jean Pierre's oldest Chenin vines, this is a special cuvée full of his signature mineral character that will age for years to come.
Notes on the Winemaker: Jean Pierre Robinot produces some of the most acclaimed and sought after natural wines in the world. He moved to the Loire valley early in the 21st century after running a wine bar in Paris and now produces red wines from Pineau d'Aunis and whites from Chenin Blanc. The energy in a Robinot bottle really must be experienced at some point in your life! Age-worthy and unique wines, for sure.
