Chenin Blanc from Renaud’s oldest vines, some of which are over a hundred years old. The fruit here comes from the higher part of the slope, which sees a higher percentage of silex and sand relative to clay. Pressed directly to barrels, it spent three years ageing sous voile, developing kaleidoscopic notes of citrus, smoke, spice and brine. A wine of profound structure and seemingly eternal youth, we can’t wait to watch this unfurl over the coming years.
