Suggestions from the Roberson team.
After mastering Provençal Rosé, Cédric Bourez along with his family started the quest for a characterful estate. One with a natural richness of terroir with a diverse soil profile. They fell in love with Anjou, with incredible old plots of Chenin Blanc, in the best orientation, facing the Layon river. The vines are rooted in volcanic rock called “Spilite” giving the wines soul and elegant nuances.
Emerging from several risk-taking vineyards dotted abound Northern California. Composed of some very unique, rare varieties: 44% Trousseau Noir, 22% Gamay, 18% Valdiguié, 13% Cabernet Pfeffer and 3% Poulsard. All components fermented separately, partially carbonic for brightness and all whole cluster adding to the complex spice aromas. Delicate and lean, mineral-laden, cranberry scented with incense, tobacco, petrichor and black peppercorn. - 17.5 points - JancisRobinson.com
A rare rose-hued delight from the 100-year-old Fanucchi-Wood Road Vineyard. Fresh notes of summer melon and stone fruit, with whispers of white tea and wet rock. A renaissance of a nearly forgotten grape, foot-crushed and naturally fermented to maintain its vibrant character. Perfectly paired with seafood, salads, or creamy goat cheese. - 17.5 points - JancisRobinson.com
