Grape: Chenin BlancVintage: NVType: Sparkling This low-intervention sparkling white wine is an artisanal expression of chenin blanc crafted by Vincent Bergeron in Montlouis-sur-Loire. Sourced from a tiny two-point-six hectare biodynamic estate, the old vines grow directly into rocky limestone and clay terraces. The winemaking utilizes a traditional native fermentation driven entirely by wild vineyard yeasts inside neutral vessels, avoiding modern physical manipulation. This specific multi-vintage lot retains a small portion of natural residual sugar to foster a beautifully accessible profile. It displays a bright straw-yellow color with a soft, fine mousse that glides across the tongue. The nose is highly expressive and inviting, opening with sweet aromas of yellow peach, pear, and honeysuckle flowers. A light-to-medium frame balances a juicy fruit sweetness with a clean wave of natural acidity. Subtle notes of fresh ginger and a distinct minerality add depth across the fluid mouthfeel. It finishes clean, crisp, and exceptionally easy to gulp down.
