Vin de France Clos des Treilles Chenin Mechant Nicolas Réau 2023

The wine

This Chenin from Nicolas Réau is a Vin de France. Produced from the clay-limestone soils that Chenin loves so much, only 2 grams of sulphites are added during the bottling stage so as to stabilize the wine as much as possible.

About the Producer Clos des Treilles

Nicolas Réau settled at Clos des Treilles in 2002. This 7-hectare domain is in the Anjou appellation. The name comes from a 2-hectare Clos that dates back several centuries. Located on a major fault line where the Armorican Massif meets the Paris basin, the domain's terroir is rich with 180 million years of geological history, with rich, complex sub-soils. Nicolas is a former pianist; he decided to give up music in favour of wine, more specifically natural wine. The domain obtained organic certification in 2012; it favours 3-week long macerations and natural yeasts which contribute to the high quality of wines produced. This vigneron is a talented producer who, year after year, produces very fine natural wines.
