The winemaker

Winemaker Country Region
Château de Plaisance France Loire
About the winemaker Château de Plaisance has been owned by the Rochais family until 2019. In this year it was Vanessa Cherruau who took over the domain with her team and continued on the road set by the Rochais family. From 1995 they worked organically and from 2008 even fully biodynamically. There is a total of 25 hectares of vineyard, of which 20 hectares are planted with chenin blanc. In the vineyard, the vines are "listened" carefully and biodiversity is encouraged. The approach in the cellar is the same, little to no intervention and no use of additives, only small amounts of sulphite.
Vineyard management Organic-Biodynamics

Details

Vineyard The vineyards for this wine can be found in the heart of the Anjou appellation. This is the only wine made from purchased fruit, partly caused by the extreme frost in 2021. The fruit is bought "on the stick" so that the same strict selection takes place at the harvest as with the other wines.
Vinification Hand harvested grapes in small crates. Slow cold pressing and natural yeasts. Ageing for 11  months on stainless steel.
Vintage 2022
Oak aging Yes
Ageing potential up to 8 years after harvest
Alcohol percentage 13.5%
Closure Natural cork
