'The 2020 Terre de Pierre is initially seductive and savoury with youthful, apple sauce flavours and a delicate, leesy character. There’s plentiful concentration here, but it has a delightful sense of lightness on its feet and purity of fruit. It has a finesse of texture on the finish and a precise, tense conclusion. Drink 2021-2030.' 92 points, Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, November 2021.
Vines planted in 1974 on one of the highest and most exposed sites in Muscadet, La Butte de la Roche, in the village of Loroux-Bottereau. Here, the terroir is based on rare 500 million-year-old Serpentinite (pictured above). The juice is cold-settled then fermented with native yeasts and matured on lees for 17 months without racking.
