In the glass
More than thirty grape varieties grown side by side on one Loire farm, by a family that has farmed without chemicals since the 1970s.
A red from more than thirty grape varieties grown together on a mixed farm in the Sologne, where the family's own cows supply the vineyard's manure. Crunchy red berries and darker plum, black pepper, earth and a smoky, salty finish. Light to medium in weight, with juicy freshness and gentle grip. It spends two and a half years in old barrels and is bottled with nothing added.
