Adonis
Producer: La Grapperie
Region: Loire Valley, France
Cépage: Pineau d’Aunis
Year: 2024
Vinification: Hand-harvested and carefully sorted at full ripeness, with approximately 30% of the grapes destemmed before a two-week maceration in truncated oak vats. Fermentation occurs spontaneously with indigenous yeasts, without additives or manipulation. The wine is handled exclusively by gravity and aged on its lees for 12 months in demi-muids within historic tuffeau limestone cellars.
Tasting Notes: Bright and aromatic with vibrant red berry fruit, cracked black pepper, and delicate floral notes. Juicy and energetic on the palate, with fine tannins, lively acidity, and a silky texture. A fresh, elegant expression of Pineau d’Aunis with a long, spicy finish.
