SAVENNIERES BELLEVUE 2019 DOMAINE PATRICK BAUDOUIN 

Today, Domaine Patrick Baudouin has thirteen and a half hectares of vines in production. Ten hectares of Chenin, three and a half of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon, in the communes of Chaudefonds sur Layon, Saint Aubin de Luigné and Rochefort sur Loire (Quart de Chaume). Patrick also planted one hectare of Savennières in 2009.

The Estate undertook to convert all its vines to organic farming in 2002. Any new plot rented or purchased is immediately converted, if it is not already organic.
Since 1997 they resumed tillage, then abandoned chemical weedkillers, and from 2001 they no longer used synthetic treatment products. In the cellar, since 1994, no more wine from the Domaine has been chaptalized ("sweetened", as the ancients said), by limiting sulfur to a minimum.

In the vineyard, certified organic farming, constant search for the best human labor / biotope ratio, for a non-destructive, sustainable culture.

Depuis leur village de Saint Lambert, perché au-dessus de cette faille volcanique qui surplombe l'autre côté du Layon, offrant ainsi un paysage tourmenté, l'envie d'explorer ces coteaux fut irrésistible pour eux. Ils ont donc entrepris de parcourir ces pentes arides et caillouteuses, à la recherche de nouvelles perspectives. Ils ont découvert une friche et huit rangs de vieilles vignes, qu'ils ont acquis auprès d'un couple de vignerons à la retraite. Conscients de la valeur de ces vieux plants de Chenin, ils ont conservé ces huit rangs et ont progressivement défriché et replanté avec des sélections provenant de leurs vignes anciennes.

Ces coteaux, à la fois rocailleux et balayés par les vents, portent un nom qui leur correspond parfaitement : Pierre Bise. La "Pierre" fait référence à la roche volcanique appelée Spilite, tandis que la "Bise" évoque ce vent frais qui souffle presque sans interruption sur ces versants surplombant la vallée du Layon. Ainsi, "Vent de Spilite" reflète pleinement les grandes caractéristiques de ce terroir exceptionnel.

Saint Martin tower. It was in 1988 that Bertrand MONCHIN embarked on the wine adventure at Menetou Salon, where his grandfather was already producing wine before the war. The plots, well distributed over the heights of the village of Morogues, are made up of 10 hectares of Sauvignon and 7 hectares of Pinot. For almost 30 years now, Bertrand MINCHIN has been making the most of this magnificent Kimmeridgian terroir. Everything is implemented in the vines to produce the most beautiful grapes: ploughing, composting, control of the vegetative balance, control of yields and respect for the environment. environment (area labeled High Environmental Value).

A large part of the vineyard is harvested manually, in order to vinify each plot separately. It is in a perfectly equipped cellar (sorting table, carpet, temperature-controlled vats, wooden vats, pneumatic presses, etc.) that he vinifies his grapes in a minimally interventionist manner. The reds ferment for a long time, are lightly punched down and devatted manually. The whites undergo long pressures, and ferment at a controlled temperature.

Sancerre Mont Damné Domaine Didier Dagueneau 2019 75 cl

Viticulturalist in SAINT ANDELAIN

Details Domain

Louis-Benjamin Dagueneau, who worked for several years alongside his father and sister Charlotte (commercial side) have been in charge of the estate since Didier's disappearance in September 2008. Louis Benjamin perpetuates the upscale artisan spirit of this small property where the management of the vineyard is done with mastery and serenity. Here, the harvest in boxes is done in a very short time, at optimal maturity, with great staff reinforcement. The use of selected yeasts, tight settling and long aging on lees without racking remains the basis of an absolute quest for the crystalline expression of Sauvignon - enhanced by a millimeter aging in wood, in barrels of volume greater than barrels, "cigars" (320 liters) or "tons" (600 liters).

Seven vintages make up the range: Blanc Fumé de Pouilly (ex-Chailloux), a blend of four plots; Thoroughbred, assembly of the Madness sector; Buisson Renard, a more compact plot of Saint-Andelain; Flint, crystal purity of flint clays; Without forgetting the extremely rare Clos du Calvaire: 20 ares planted at 14000 feet / ha, uprooted in 2009 (2008 being the last vintage) and replanted in another direction at 10 feet / ha (next vintage around 000), and the Asteroid - from a vineyard free from the harvest, still very ripe. Finally, last terroirs (while waiting for the red that Benjamin wants to vinify), the Sancerre de Chavignol, from the heart of the Grand Cru of the Côte des Monts Damnés.
