Gamay and Pineau d'Aunis. Pollux is usually all or at least mainly Gamay, but Gamay is hard to ripen so far north (hence Pollux not being made annually to begin with) and the Nicolas family is not replacing them as they become unproductive with age; Pineau d'Aunis plays a prominent role in Pollux for the first time in 2021. All of the vines are on flinty clay over tuffeau and yield a maximum of 25 hl/ha. Farming is certified-biodynamic and the harvest by hand. The grapes are destemmed, gently crushed and fermented spontaneously with native yeasts in old barrels. Maceration lasts several weeks with occasional punchdowns. The wine is aged in barrel for a year and bottled without fining or filtering.

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

France is renowned across the globe for its quality wines and the careful expertise which goes into making them, but what is truly remarkable about this relatively small country is the vast range of wines it produces in such huge amounts each year. Not only are the finest red wines in the world said to come from the beautiful regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy, but elsewhere in the country we find the Champagne region, and areas such as the Rhone Valley and the Loire, whose white wines consistently receive awards and accolades by the plenty. This range is a result of the great variety of climatic conditions and terrain found in France, coupled with generations of wine makers working within single appellations. Their knowledge of specific terroirs and grape varieties has, over time, perfected the production of wines within their region, and the end results continue to impress the world to this day.
