2022 | Jerome Lambert | Coule de Source

$122.00

Description:

Jérôme Lambert farms four and a half hectares spread across small parcels in Thouarcé, Faye d’Anjou, Rablay-sur-Layon and Champ-sur-Layon. He has worked organically from the outset and has been making wine without any additions for several decades.

This sublime 2022 Chenin Blanc comes from forty-year-old vines planted on schist in Anjou, Loire Valley, France. Renowned for exceptional minerality and purity, this Chenin Blanc showcases vibrant aromas and flavours of ripe stone fruit, bright citrus, and striking flinty notes that reflect its unique schist soils.

Harvested from mature vines and pressed directly to cuve for a year of gentle ageing, the wine benefits from a cooler vintage that produced a pale, lean, and lively profile. Crisp citrus, subtle smoke, and mineral-driven stone character combine to create a precise, focused expression of Chenin Blanc.

Perfect for lovers of natural, terroir-driven wines, this 2022 Chenin Blanc exemplifies pure varietal identity and Loire Valley authenticity. Its clean acidity and mineral backbone make it an excellent match for seafood, goat cheese, and light poultry dishes, while also rewarding slow sipping on its own.
