Winery
100% Pineau d'Aunis. This wine comes from the 12 oldest rows of Pineau d'Aunis on the Bellivìere estate, up to about 100 years old at this point. These vines are crucial not just for the minute amount of very concentrated, complex wine they yield but also as a source for massale cuttings for the rest of the Bellivière Pineau vineyard. The farming is certified-biodynamic and all work including harvest is by hand. The berries are partly destemmed and partly left in whole clusters and foot-trodden in tank. The juice is fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts and a maceration of up to a month. The wine is aged in old 500-liter demi-muids for a year and bottled without fining or filtration. The wine is made (not even in every vintage) and named in honor of the local mentor of Eric and Christine Nicolas, Louis Derré, who helped them find their footing and some vines of their own when they first turned up in Jasnières as outsiders in a very insular wine region.

Region: Loire Valley

The Loire Valley in France is home to many of the world's finest examples of white, rosé and sparkling wines, with a wide range of both dry and sweet examples being produced each year to international claim. Whilst Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc make up for much of the vineyards in the region, certain areas of the Loire Valley also produce superb red wines, such as the Cabernet Franc wines from the Chenin sub-region. This variety and level of excellence has long been admired, with the Loire Valley being highly favored in the middle ages by the crowned heads of Europe, and with a wine-making tradition which stretches back to the first century and perhaps beyond. The region has a wonderful continental climate, where hot summers meet oceanic winds, and excellent rich terroir carried by the river that flows through it.

Country: France

It is widely understood and accepted that the finest wines in the world come out of France. Whether you are drinking a vintage bottle from one of the famed Grand Cru wineries of Bordeaux - such as Chateau Margaux or Chateau Lafite-Rothschild - or a more simple and affordable bottle from one of the lesser known appellations in Burgundy, the likelihood is that the wine is packed full of intense and interesting flavors, and has a fine, balanced structure typical of almost all French produce. This reputation for excellence is taken extremely serious by the French, with dozens of regularly updated laws and regulations ensuring the quality and accurate labeling of wines. Such dedication and passion for fine wine, representative of the region in which it is produced, means customers can be assured that when they buy a bottle from France, they are buying something almost certain to please and delight.
