Sylvain Dittière farms his vines organically, works with minimal yields and relies on native yeasts to perform their magic in his ancient limestone cellar. Les Pouches spent 18 months in oak barrels.
Aromatic and complex with lots of character. Apple, lemon and a hint of peach with floral notes and chalky minerality. Bone-dry on the palate with balanced, fresh acidity, plenty of juiciness and a long finish.
A mix of sand and hard limestone containing silex (flint) in Montreuil-sur-Bellay. Half of this Chenin Blanc was sourced from 20-year-old vines, the other halft grom 70-year-old vines.
