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 inter-row cultivation to a minimum to encourage biodiversity, and use grass cover and natural mulching to protect the soil. Sandy schist soils and east-facing slopes.
Oenology
Hand-picked in crates. Slow cold pressing with indigenous yeasts. Vinified and aged for 14 months including 10 months in oak barrels.
Liquid geography
Château de Plaisance, superbly taken over by Vanessa Cherruau since the 2019 harvest, is located in Rochefort-sur-Loire. This estate had everything to seduce her: 25 hectares of vines cultivated organically since 1995 and biodynamically since 2008. Mostly planted with Chenin (80%), the vines extend over prestigious terroirs: the Butte de Chaume (Premier Cru des Coteaux du Layon), the Grand Cru Quarts-de-Chaume on the left bank of the Loire and the AOP Savennières on the right bank. Since taking over, Vanessa has stopped all ploughing, replanted hedges, fruit trees and forest trees to promote biodiversity, and manages each plot with remarkable precision. Each dry wine cuvée is vinified separately to best express its terroir. The price/pleasure ratio is splendid and the estate's potential seems simply unlimited to us. A real must-have.
