Thibaud Boudignon Anjou A Francoise 2021

Details

Cristallin, pure, a great Chenin de Loire! Our darling of the range! This elegant cuve has an almost perfect juice, offering a beautiful ripeness of grapes and a lot of energy.

A chenin of diabolical depth and persistence! A cuve in tribute to Thibaut’s mother who disappeared far too soon, Franoise, and her father Franois. A dazzling chenin, electric on the gun stone, all in tension and persistence.

From a plot of vines planted in the early 1980s in St-Lambert-du-Lattay, planted at 8000 feet/ha on shallow soils of grey shale and rhyolite.

Fermented on native yeasts in francen Stockinger including some 300L cigars, used to develop the complexity of the lees. Then raised in half-muids and 700L (30%new) for 15 to 18 months.
