Variety: 60% Pinot Noir, 40% Gamay
Location: Loire Valley, FR

Juicy and bright, but with enough earthiness to balance everything out. Strong raspberry and kirsch notes all struck with a distinct earthy note and lots of forest-y undergrowth.

Gamay and Pinot Noir made entirely in concrete tank.

Hervé Villemade has been working his family’s vines in Cellettes since taking over from his father in 1995. In 2000, Hervé decided to convert the estate to organic viticulture. Today, the estate represents about 22 hectares of organically farmed fruit within the Cheverny and Cour-Cheverny AOCs, along with a négociant license to supplement production with local grapes.
