Pure Chenin Blanc from the 2.72 hectare monopole of the Coteau des Treilles. The “Côte-Rôtie” of the Loire was abandoned after WWII because of the steep slopes (up to 70%) and remoteness of inside what is now Pont Barré Natural Reserve. The soil is a mashup of geological chaos including magmatic rocks, schist, puddingstone, and the oldest limestone in the Loire. Aged for 18 months in barrel before bottling.
