Natural Wines with Christophe Foucher of La Lunotte
8/11/15 -
Christophe Foucher makes brilliant natural wines on his 5 hectare estate in Couffy, on the southern bank of the Cher River, near St. Aignan, just a short distance from our friends at Clos Roche Blanche. Christophe grows Sauvignon Blanc, Menu Pineau, Cabernet Franc, Cot and Gamay, farmed with strict organic methods and vinified without sulfites or other additives. He will stop by Chambers Street on his quick trip to New York on Wednesday evening to pour a selection of his rare and delicious wines. We'll taste 2013 Sauvignon Blanc "Rossignoux," and the 2014 Pet Nat "Bulottes," both of which are currently available, as well as samples of past and upcoming vintages including the extraordinary Menu Pineau Sous Voile "Deux Temps en Temps." Any lover of natural wines should come meet Christophe and taste!
