2023 Domaine de l'Aumonier - Touraine Sauvignon Blanc (750ml)

750ml | SKU 101728 | 56 Available

This comes from vines averaging 20 years old growing in the communes of Couffy, Seigy and Chateauvieux just south of the Cher River, a major tributary of the Loire. The Loire Valley is an open window to the Atlantic, blessing the region with clement weather. L’Aumonier’s soils range from tufa hillsides rich in clay and limestone to flatter sites of flint and clay, sand and clay, and silt and clay. Ferments are typically spontaneous (the occasional difficult tank may get a dose of neutral yeast) and the wine is raised in tank. There's no fining during élevage and only a light filtration at bottling. Production averages 8,500 cases.

Note that during warmer harvests, they do their harvesting at night to retain as much freshness in the grapes as possible. Certified organic and biodynamic

2022 Mas d'Amile - Les Clos Terrasses du Larzac (750ml)

750ml | SKU 101730 | 15 Available
95 JD

Le Clos is an isolated 2.22 acre parcel of vines on a south-facing slope surrounded by forest. It's in the commune of Montpeyroux but Amélie labels the wine under the Terrasses du Larzac appellation to keep it separate from her Montpeyroux bottling, which comes from a number of different sites scattered about the commune and is given a different élevage.

Le Clos was planted in 2001 to 40% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre and 30% Syrah. That reflects more or less the blend in the bottle. All of the varieties are hand-harvested, but the Syrah inevitably is harvested and vinified first, while the Grenache and Mourvèdre are normally harvested later and together and are co-fermented. All ferments are native, and the wine is aged for ~18 months in 600L demi-muids, 20% of which are new. A normal year sees 300 cases.

drink Barolo every evening and who know that such wines often contain declassified
