Thierry Hesnault

Jasnières, Loire

La Centenaire du Vauperroux

2020

Thierry’s iconic Pineau d’Aunis comes from a hundred and thirty year old parcel planted on original roots. The grapes were fermented on the skins for three weeks and aged in old barrels for eighteen months. This warmer vintage has produced a deeper expression of site. Compact and elegant, it is defined by dark, brambly fruit, exotic spice and a complex, woodsy character that adds layers of intrigue. Remarkable now, this will truly reward those who wait.
