Les Errances - Cartouche 2023
A beautifully lifted Grolleau from Anjou, capturing lightness without losing depth. The nose is bright and inviting — crushed raspberry and red cherry intertwined with delicate violet blossom and a subtle earthy undertone from clay and schist soils. On the palate, it is supple and finely structured, with silky tannins and fresh acidity carrying the fruit effortlessly. Round, smooth and dangerously drinkable, yet quietly refined in its balance and poise.

VINIFICATION
Hand-harvested fruit is vinified separately by Maïté and Warren. Whole bunches macerate in concrete tanks for approximately 14 days before spontaneous fermentation. The wine ages for around eight months prior to bottling. Only a minimal 10 mg/L of sulphur is added before release.
An elegant, fruit-driven Loire red that balances freshness, finesse and pure drinkability.
