Loic Mahé - Vin de France Fleur de Nuit 2014

Demanding and meticulous, Loïc Mahé takes great care to preserve the balance of the flora and fauna in his vineyard, which has been certified organic since 2008. He built this vineyard from the ground up in 2000, starting with a small plot of land in Savennières that had no vines at the time! With the acquisition of the Château La Franchaie vineyard in 2011, he now cultivates nearly 11 hectares of vines, including a substantial collection of vines in Savennières.

Loïc Mahé, who has been based in Anjou for ten years, has gradually expanded a vineyard that remains on a human scale (5 ha). This young biodynamic winemaker aims to express the robust, full-bodied character of the vineyards surrounding Sainte-Gemmes. After a period when the wines were certainly authentic but somewhat rough around the edges, the vintages are gaining in precision, even if the aging process still has room for improvement.

Deep ruby color. A crisp nose of fresh red and black berries, with hints of caramel and peony. Smooth and easy-drinking on the palate, delightfully indulgent. Superb freshness in the aromas paired with a smooth finish. Unconventional, yet perfect for any time of day.
