This 2021 Clos de la Bergerie is marked by its vintage. Affected by the frost, the fruit offered greater concentration at the time of harvest. The wine is showing the usual oxidative note balanced with the intensity of the fruit and a great acidity
Clos de la Bergerie provides a unique interpretation of site, taking in the moderating and gentle east facing slopes of AOC Savennières Roche aux Moines. The Joly family owns 3.5 hectares of the appellation. The vineyard comprises the same soil composition as Coulée de Serrant, schist and quartz, but with deeper soil and milder slopes, allowing the maturity to peak just slightly later. A rich and powerful wine set to stand the test of time.
