Organic. This delightfully pulpy, dry Chenin Blanc is made from younger vines in Savennières’ prestigious Roche-aux-Moines terroir. The wine takes its name from the copse of trees surrounding the two-hectare parcel—The Cradle of the Fairies. Fermented wild in stainless steel, it is classified as Vin de France, as the wine’s six-month aging is less than is legally required for the Savennières appellation.
The combination of the vineyard’s schist soils and Tessa Laroche’s precise, low-sulphur winemaking gives a spritely and delightfully dry Chenin, vibrating with cool orchard fruit and salted-lemon flesh supported by mouthwatering acidity and Savennières’ smoky mineral notes. Unlike the domaine’s grand vin, this cuvée is not designed to cellar more than a few years. This will not present a problem; this uplifting Loire white is already dangerously delicious!
