Thibaud Boudignon, Savennières 'La Vigne Cendrée' 2022 JURA This is direct press PineauPlace: Loire, France Grape: Chenin Blanc Vibe: Rare as Teeny tiny site here, only 0. 5 hectares, but mighty in terms of soil variety purple schist, granite and clay silt, all of which lend a richness to this bottling. Ripe, focused and saline, with notes of brine and smoke plus tangerines and nectarines coming through later on. One for the long haul! ABV: 12. 5%
