"Roche Blanche" Blanc 2022 Julien Pineau
"Roche Blanche" Blanc by Julien Pineau is an extraordinary wine that continues the legacy of the iconic Touraine estate, Clos Roche Blanche. Born from the passion and dedication of Julien Pineau, this wine reflects the distinctive character of the Loire terroir, located in Loir-et-Cher.
The grapes used for this wine come exclusively from the Sauvignon Blanc variety, renowned for thriving in the clay, flint, and limestone soils of the region. The unique terroir of Roche Blanche imparts remarkable complexity and structure to the wine.
The winemaking process is equally meticulous. The grapes are pressed directly, and the must is fermented and aged in stainless steel on the lees. This method allows the wine to develop unique aromatic richness and structural depth.
"Roche Blanche" Blanc is a vibrant wine, characterized by notes of ripe grapefruit, melon, fresh grass, and wildflowers. It's like a cold sunbeam illuminating the palate, with freshness and vitality that delight the senses.
Julien Pineau, the heir of Clos Roche Blanche, cultivates his vines with care and respect for nature, adopting sustainable and organic farming practices. The harvest is entirely manual to ensure the highest quality grapes.
"Roche Blanche" Blanc is an authentic expression of the Loire terroir and Julien Pineau's talent. It's a wine that enchants and surprises, perfect to enjoy chilled paired with dishes such as vichyssoise, bagels with smoked salmon, potato latkes, or white fish salad with capers.
