One of the very greatest Dry Chenin Blanc vineyards in the Limestone part of the Loire, whose reputation rightly sits along side “La Charpentrie” from Domaine du Collier. Aged 2 years in large oak, a very rare and fine wine.
Dry, complex and serious Chenin. Stone fruits and flowers with notes of spice and honey. Delicious.
Nerd Notes
This is a tiny vineyard, just 7 ha, of which the Jousset’s farm just over 1 ha, entirely worked by horse or human hands, no machines. It is a special vineyard, with a very peculiar blue clay, and lots of silex flint stones.
