Provenance: Loire
Appellation: Savennières
Domain: Damien Laureau
Grape variety(ies): Chenin
On-call time: 3 years
Alcohol degree: 13.5%

This is the queen appellation, the one that is renowned for its exceptional chenin de garde! And we are more than ever in admiration of the production of Damien Laureau, a great talent at the service of his terroirs. His Genêts impresses by its freshness, its aromatic clarity (bitter orange, spices), its elegance and its finesse. An accessible wine, but capable of ageing gracefully. RVF Green Guide: 92/100

Technique

Viticulture

Damien Laureau took over a vineyard and fruit growing estate in Gemmes sur Loire in 1999. In 2006, he took over a few plots in the Savennières vineyard and his estate now has a surface area of 7.8 ha. In organic farming since 2009, he cultivates his vines without synthetic products and with preparations based on dung or composts. The soils are predominantly sandy-silt for this wine.

Oenology

The Chenin grapes, harvested in successive batches, are pressed directly, settled for 12 hours, and fermented (indigenous yeasts) in vats or barrels depending on the terroir. Each micro-terroir is identified and vinified separately. Malolactic fermentation is carried out by itself according to the vintage. Aged for 12 months in barrels and then a minimum of 6 months in vats.
