Features

Pierre MĂ©nard est un tout jeune vigneron angevin. Il travaille avec ses parents qui amĂšnent leur production Ă  la cave coopĂ©rative. Depuis 2013, il a commencĂ© Ă  produire son propre vin. En effet, cela lui faisait trop mal au cƓur d'envoyer des raisins issus de magnifiques terroirs Ă  la cave coop. De mĂȘme, il ne veut plus travailler avec des pesticides chimiques. Aussi, dĂšs son premier millĂ©sime, il s'est engagĂ© vers une culture respectueuse de l'environnement avec l'usage des plantes, en prenant son temps pour trouver l'Ă©quilibre des vignes. La production est toute petite pour le moment, ce qui lui permet de faire un travail mĂ©ticuleux toute l'annĂ©e Ă  la vigne.

C’est une parcelle qui est juste Ă  cĂŽtĂ© du Clos des Mailles. Si le Clos des Mailles est sur la crĂȘte du coteau et le dĂ©but de la pente nord qui regarde Faye d'Anjou, la Varenne de ChanzĂ© est de l'autre cĂŽtĂ© du chemin et plonge sur la pente sud plus escarpĂ©e qui regarde le Layon. Le sol change avec toujours une base de schiste, pas ou peu de phtanites ici mais une petite prĂ©sence de spilite altĂ©rĂ©e, roche volcanique qui Ă  priori semble donner une jolie tension et de la vigueur au vin. Les vignes sont encore jeunes mais le potentiel est dĂ©jĂ  prometteur.

Vendange manuelle, pressurage doux pneumatique, fermentation et élevage en barriques de 5 à 8 vins.

DĂ©gustation : La robe est or pale, brillante. Le nez est discret, suggĂ©rant subtilement les fruits blancs rĂŽtis au beurre et de fines notes toastĂ©es / grillĂ©es. La bouche est longiligne, Ă©tirĂ©e par un fil invisible tout en dĂ©ployant une matiĂšre, ronde, douce, aĂ©rienne, trĂšs saline / fumĂ©e qui s'Ă©tend progressivement dans tout le palais. La finale prolonge la tension de la bouche en accentuant la fraĂźcheur et l'amertume, mĂȘlant l'agrume confit Ă  des notes grillĂ©es.

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.
