Racines Blanc, 2022

From a Loire farm where the family grow wheat to feed the cows that fertilise the vines. A big, savoury white with a salty finish.

A rich, savoury white from a family farm in the Sologne, where vines share the land with woods, wheat fields and the cows whose manure feeds them. Ripe yellow fruit and preserved lemon, a thread of herbs and undergrowth, and a long salty finish. Two and a half years in old barrels give it weight and texture rather than oak flavour. It is made with nothing added and nothing taken out.
