Domaine de la Juchepie, Anjou "Clos" Chenin Sec, 2015
Anjou AOC
100% Chenin Blanc

Biodynamic. Schists & volcanic soils.
30 hl/ha. Manual harvest in small boxes. Harvest in several consecutive pickings - only ripe, golden grapes selected. No botrytis affected grapes are selected to make this cuvée.
A blend of their best parcels, which have the thinnest layer of clay topsoil. The proximity of the bedrock results in a wine with more minerality.
Slow, manual vertical pressing. Fermentation takes place in oak barrels of 2 to 5 years old.
11 months on fine lees in barriques, 2 in tank before bottling.
Indigenous yeasts, no additions.
