The estate and the wine |
|
|
Founded in 2011 by Michel Chevré, formerly the vineyard manager for Thierry Germain, the Clos de l’Ecotard has quickly become one of the undisputed benchmarks in the Loire. The father-son team of the Chevrés meticulously crafts some of the region's purest and most brilliant wines, all in organic cultivation. These are terroir-driven wines, masterfully aged in barrels or amphoras, known for their precision.
Awarded 2 stars by the RVF Guide, this leading estate impresses and delights; both whites and reds here resonate with a magical purity, crafted with tact and restraint. Wine enthusiasts from all over converge and compete to get their hands on a few bottles of these sought-after wines. |

Originating from a hillside where limestone is prominent, the 2021 white Saumur Les Pentes is a marvel of purity and salinity, ranking among the most exciting Chenins of the moment. Skillfully balancing concentration, chalky intensity, and refinement, this resplendent white proudly asserts its status as one of the greatest from the Loire! It has been rated 95/100 by RVF. |
