Information
About the producer

Domaine Laureau is located in the Loire Valley, not far from Angers, and has been part of the winemaking landscape for over 20 years. This is where Damien Laureau cultivates six hectares of Chenin, converted to organic farming since 2012.
Absolutely no synthetic products come into play in this vineyard. Life develops naturally underground helping to retain the purest expression of the terroir. Manual work performed in the vineyard further reinforces this ethos. Several successive passes are conducted to harvest the Chenin grapes, which are then left to settle for around 12 hours. Once fermentation using native yeasts is complete, the cuvées are matured on the lees for 18 to 24 months, gradually increasing the wine’s roundness and aromatic richness.
Damien recently planted half a hectare of vines in a closed vineyard overlooking the region. This promises further authentic cuvées reflecting the peaceful harmony achieved between the winemaker and the life of his land.

About the wine

Domaine Laureau gives us this amazing Savennières wine that connoisseurs have taken no time in labelling as one of the greats from its appellation. This cuvée comes from an eponymous parcel, which previously belonged to Damien Laureau’s parents, before it was planted in 1999. The Chenin vines soak up the essence of its very special terroir, which has nuances of aeolian sands and blue and sandstone schists. The terroir is rather rare and has been intensified by a very precise vinification process. This includes fermenting the grapes in new 400-litre barrels and allowing the wine to mature in wooden barrels for one month before spending 18 months in stoneware jars.
Production is limited, producing a little over 1,000 bottles per vintage, which can be left in the cellar for a few years. The wine offers a profile that mimics that of Burgundy wines. Notes of well-ripened fruits and quince are complemented by a magnificent minerality.
