Clos des Plantes, Poïèsis 2022
Place: Loire, France
Grape: Chenin Blanc
Vibe: Natural, textural
Chenin Blanc from some enviably placed vines in Anjou, with a couple of half decent vignerons operating out of the neighbouring plots. Olivier Lejeune is at the helm of Clos des Plantes, working wonders. Veering toward the tropical, exotic end of the Chenin spectrum here. Fruit power and complexity is all kept in check by soaring acidity. A banger. ABV: 13%
