Régis Minet took over his grandfather’s eastern Loire

Régis Minet took over his grandfather’s eastern Loire estate in 1976. Dedicated to expressing the native terroir, he farms organically and with minimal intervention. Vineyards are 25-30 years in age, with clay, marl and Kimmeridgian Limestone soils. Spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, aged on the fine lees in stainless steel for 6 months. Pale gold in colour, with aromas of chalky minerality, lemon, granny smith apple, citrus blossom, trace of ozone. Keen acidity, lemon, ginger and green pear diffuse over a chalky mineral backbone. Grapefruit and lemon zest amplify the flinty mineral finish. Composed, elegant and sleek. 100% Sauvignon Blanc 13% Alcohol Régis Minet ‘Vieilles Vignes’ Pouilly Fumé 2018 #vinobiologico #lowinterventionwine #vinbiologique #sauvignonblanc #pouillyfume #vinnature #loirevalleywines #loirewine #vinnaturels #vinbio #organicwine #drinkbetterwine #vinfrancais #vininaturali #frenchwine #winereview #vinblanc #vinvivant #vinobianco #frenchwinelover #naturalwinelover #risotto #roastedromanesco #uovo #regisminet #vieillesvignes #caravino
