Features
C’est le vin provenant d’une petite parcelle de Sauvignon blanc située dans le Clos de La Roche à Faye d’Anjou. Elle fait partie des premières arrivées de ce cépage en Anjou au début des années 1960 et a été plantée sur un sommet de coteau de schiste, terroir inédit pour un Sauvignon de Loire. Cette parcelle est aujourd’hui l’une des très rares toujours en place sur roche de schiste. Depuis sa plantation, 2014 fut la première vinification de cette parcelle seule, un test pilote sans filet. Le nom est ainsi un hommage à un certain esprit d’aventure et à l’histoire extraordinaire mais terrible de Laïka, petite chienne premier être vivant envoyé dans l’espace. Le travail de la vigne est fait de façon naturelle et est surtout manuel, la protection contre les maladies se fait notamment par des tisanes, décoctions et macérations de plantes (prêle, ortie, achillée millefeuille, osier, pissenlit, camomille, fougère).
Vendange manuelle, pressurage doux pneumatique, fermentation et élevage en barriques de 4 à 10 vins, jarre de grès et cuve.
Dégustation : La robe est jaune paille, brillante. Le nez fin et expressif "sauvignonne" un peu plus que d'habitude : pomelo, cassis subtilement végétal, mais aussi un léger ananas et même une fine pointe de rose. La bouche est ronde, très ample, enveloppante, déployant une matière charnue – au toucher moelleux – . rafraîchie et tonifiée par un trait de gaz carbonique. L'aromatique mêle les fruits blancs aux écorces d'agrumes. La finale est droite, tendue, avec une matière plus concentrée et une amertume "cheninesque" sur la bigarade et le quinquina.

One of the widest selections of the web of authors' wines and craftsmen
What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
