This is Pinot Noir from some of Patrick's oldest vines which are planted over volcanic soils of Basalt, with a splash of Chardonnay. Luminous, fine-grained and electric. Find out more.
About the Wine
A négociant cuvée made using a direct-press of Riesling from Domaine Goepp in Heiligenstein, Alsace, that sees some time ageing in foudre barrel. Fresh and aromatic, balanced with that that rich, savoury quality reminiscent of something like a Patrick Meyer Riesling as it starts to open up.
About Patrick Bouju & Justine Loiseau
Patrick started making wine in 2004 with 1.5 hectares of vines which has now increased to around 5 hectares. The soil in Patrick's vineyards is heavily basaltic thanks to the chain of extinct volcanoes, the Puy de Dôme at its heart, which form the backbone of the region. Patrick's vineyards are mainly planted with old Gamay d'Auvergne (a smaller berried, thicker skinned variety than its Beaujolais cousin), a little Chardonnay and some Pinot Noir. We also recommend taking a look at his Sous le Végétal wines, an altogether more Greek collaboration with Jason Ligas.
