Le Pressoir de Saint Pierre 2020
From the flinty clay and limestone soils of Touraine, this Chenin captures the soul of its terroir. Vines aged 10-15 years grow on south-southeast-facing slopes at 100m altitude, where manual harvest ensures only perfectly ripe grapes make the cut.
Vinified naturally, the juice undergoes a slow press, preserving purity and balance. Fermentation is spontaneous, driven by indigenous yeasts, with no additives or interventions. A 12-month élevage on fine lees in tuffeau-carved cellars lends depth and texture to the wine.
Expect aromas of ripe orchard fruits, citrus zest, and white flowers, underscored by subtle mineral notes. The palate is precise and vibrant, with a fine balance of freshness and roundness. Perfect for lovers of Loire Chenin, showcasing purity and craftsmanship.
