The estate and the wine |
|
|
A benchmark estate in Menetou-Salon and awarded one star by La Revue du Vin de France—a leading French wine publication—Domaine Pellé is one of the Loire Valley’s standout names.
Since 2008, Pierre-Henry Pellé has brought a meticulous approach to every detail, from biodynamic farming to precise parcel selection and carefully managed aging. The result is a range of cuvées that reflect the unique character of their terroirs with remarkable clarity.
What sets the estate apart is the consistency across the board: crisp, precise Whites and deeply structured Reds built to age beautifully. |

|
| |
|
Sourced from 50-year-old vines rooted in sandy, flinty soils, the 2023 Menetou-Salon Le Carroir White is a striking reflection of its terroir. Still youthful, it shows a touch of austerity that speaks to its serious structure and aging potential. The wine pulses with energy, offering subtle aromatics and a streamlined, focused palate that’s both refined and vibrant. |
