Roche Bleue NV (24/25) Coteaux du Loir La Guinguette

 Sébastien Cornille's lovely "Guinguette" is made from 75% Pineau d’Aunis, with 25% Gamay, from 30+year-old vines in organic/biodynamic farming on the beautiful clay/limestone terroir of the Coteaux du Loir. Fairly short maceration, native yeasts, semi-carbonic fermentation of whole bunches and destemmed grapes according to the “millefeuille” principle. The new multi-vintage "Guinguette" shows a deep red/black color with bright floral, peppery strawberry fruit aromas. The palate is round and supple with lovely ripe berry fruits and soft acidity. Serve quite cool with charcuterie, grilled meats, mild cheeses.
