La Grande Pièce, Château de Plaisance - 2023

Provenance: Loire
Appellation: Anjou
Domain: Château de Plaisance
Grape variety(ies): Chenin
Alcohol degree: 13%

La Grande Pièce 2023 comes from a confidential 0.8 hectare parcel of vines over 50 years old, rooted in sandstone and poudingues soils. It is a wine of great depth and balance. The nose seduces with aromas of ripe fruit (quince, mirabelle plum), dried flowers and a hint of toast. The palate is full-bodied, with good density and a mineral tension that stretches out the finish. A well-structured, vibrant Chenin that is both gastronomic and well-suited to ageing.

Technique

Viticulture

Château de Plaisance uses Guillot-Poussard pruning to maintain the circulation of sap, control the load and avoid overcrowding. They carefully manage disbudding and leaf thinning according to need. As far as the soil is concerned, they keep tillage between the rows to a minimum to encourage biodiversity, and use grass cover and natural mulching to protect the soil. Soil: sandstone and pebbled.

Oenology

Hand-picked in crates. Slow cold pressing, indigenous yeasts. Vinified and matured in stoneware barrels and jars for 15 months. Partial malolactic fermentation.
