ANJOU VILLAGES THE DREAMER 2018 THE BLACK FIEF 75CL
Grape variety: 50% Cabernet Franc, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon
Le Fief Noir is a 30ha Estate in the center of Anjou Noir, near Angers, in the commune of Saint-Lambert du Lattay.
Anjou Noir is a unique wine-growing region at the end of the East Armorican massif and in the northwest of Anjou. Noir, or “Black”, because of the stone that made up its basement: Le Schiste. Formed 30 million years ago, the Anjou Noir shale has offered an exceptional diversity of soil relief through its history and its transformation through the ages. This stone is structured in a laminated model, which constitutes an ideal terroir for viticulture. Indeed, the high number of cracks in the rock allows the vine to develop its roots inside. Thanks to this, the roots will be able to explore a wide space and drain a wide variety of minerals. We will find in the wine all the originality brought by the schist.
Anjou Noir is also the meeting of one of the great grape varieties, Chenin, with schist. A unique terroir follows a unique grape variety: the chenin takes all its depth, and expresses its richness and its potential. We find here the Anjou Blanc, definition of freshness and minerality as in the Coteaux du layon.
Le Fief Noir grows its grapes organically. Chenin, Cabernet and Grolleau grow on a rich terroir of great diversity. At Fief Noir, the terroir is the winemaker's priority. Choose the right grape variety according to the composition of the soil, work the soil to promote the development of the roots of the vine over the years, eliminate weeds that compete with the vine or contribute to the warming of the soil at the end of winter .
Vinification: maceration for one month in vats with indigenous yeasts. Aged in barrels (2/3) and in jars (1/3) for 12 months.
THE STONES OF AURELE PINEAU D'AUNIS 2019
Wine from France - PINEAU D'AUNIS
Les Pierres d'Aurèle is a family wine estate of 20 ha located in the heart of the Loire Valley, a French wine region in the midst of a renaissance.
For ten years, the dynamism of young winegrowers has allowed the Region to rise to the rank of the best French vineyards.
It is in this spirit that we took over the vineyard in 2010 and that we work daily to produce high quality local wines.
The vines are grown on the clay-siliceous soils of Chenonceaux with the greatest respect for our environment. The vines, aged 15 to 105 years, have deliberately limited yields to obtain grapes of optimum quality.
Pierre-André Frot, agricultural engineer and oenologist, is a lover of the vine and its environment. Passionate about his profession, Pierre strives to transmit this passion through the wines he produces.
Passed by great houses of Bordeaux and Burgundy during his studies, he transcribes the rigor and finesse taught in his wines. Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, Pierre very quickly acquired the Les Pierres d'Aurèle estate after working as a banker for the first 3 years following his studies.
Today, alongside his wife, he leads the life he has always dreamed of between passing on his love of wine and sharing the good things in life.
Les Pierres d'Aurèle Aunis is a fine expression of this noble Loire Valley grape variety. Exclusively from century-old vines, this wine expresses all the quintessence of the terroir on which it is grown. Its surprising notes of liquorice, pepper and fresh mint
It is on a low south-facing hillside that “Le Vau Jaumier” is located on clay-limestone terroir. Vines have been there for a long time, as evidenced by the numerous remains of amphorae. They emerge as soon as the earth is disturbed, from the remains of a Gallo-Roman villa which rises within this vineyard.
Harvest and vinification: The harvest are manual then the grapes are sorted grain by grain at optimum maturity. “Le Vau Jaumier” is the last harvested terroir of the whole estate. After crushing and destemming of the harvest, alcoholic fermentation starts naturally and is carried out in thermo-regulated wooden vats. Pigeage by foot twice a day for ten days and the maceration is then prolonged for 2 to 15 days in order to complete the extraction. Entonnage, in barrels after devatting and pressing. Malolactic fermentation therefore takes place in oak barrels (during the spring following the harvest).
Breeding : Classically, the Le Vau Jaumier cuvée is aged in 1-wine barrels for 12 months. In adaptation to the vintage,

Saumur Champigny Terres Rouges Arnaud Lambert 2022 half bottle
Winegrower Saint Just on Dive
Since 1996, the Lambert family has cultivated vines with passion on the Domaine de Saint-Just, and more recently on the vineyard of Château de Brézé, a unique micro-terroir... Every day, they prioritize the life of the
soils while preserving the life of useful flora and fauna. It is in this perspective of organic cultivation that the vine gives the best possible aromas to our wines.
The very rich history of Château de Brézé has always been intertwined with that of wine. From the XNUMXth century, the white wines of Brézé were sung by the Good King René, and appeared on the prestigious tables of the nobility and great people of this world, such as Louis XIV, the Sun King. Chenin Blanc, a typical grape variety for Pays-de-la-Loire wines, is found in the Château's plots, a unique expression thanks to the dense clay-limestone soils of Brézé. Today, it is the specificity of these very particular soils that Arnaud Lambert works and restores, with the aim of being able to restore this exceptional vineyard to its former glory!
