The Details

100% Romorantin from organic/biodynamic Cheverny trailblazer Phillippe Tessier, this is one of his upper, if not top, cuvées. Old-vine (90+ years-old) grown in clay soils with limestone bedrock. The grapes are directly pressed and spontaneously ferment in demi-muids (incl. malolactic fermentation) and see a 10-month élevage in demi-muid prior to being bottled unfined, unfiltered, minimal added SO2.
