Meslier

An experimental field blend brings together Gamay, Pineau d’Aunis, Chenin, Menu Pineau and Meslier. The grapes come from a 0.3-hectare parcel on flint clay and are purchased from organic growers. The vines are ninety years old, and the reported yield is twenty-five hectolitres per hectare. Fermentation and ageing last eight months in a Burgundy barrel.
