La Tendresse

Organic (uncertified)Spontaneous fermentationUnfiltered

Producer: Marie Rocher
Colour: Red
Last seen vintage: 2023
Grape varieties: Pineau d’Aunis, Pinot Noir
Origin: Vin de France, Loire, France

The grapes come from a vineyard site on the first slopes of the Cher Valley with Perruche soil: a calcareous subsoil over silicon and gravel. Pinot Noir and Pineau d’Aunis were fermented separately on their skins and matured for six months, the Pinot Noir in a 13-hl wooden cask and the Pineau d’Aunis in a 20-hl fibre tank. The blend was made ten days before bottling. The wine is medium-bodied to light, fruit-driven and spicy; red berries and cherry meet peppery, earthy notes. It was unfined and unfiltered and received 2 g/hl sulphur at bottling.
