Montlouis-sur-Loire Premier Rendez-vous Lise et Bertrand Jousset 2010

The wine

This cuvée comes from eight different parcels where the soils are composed largely of clay and flint, and the vines range in age from 5 to 100 years old! It is vinified in 400- and 600-litre barrels for 10 months. To taste, this wine is fruity and juicy, flavoursome and generous, with a greatly drinkable profile. A good introduction to familiarise yourself with the style and philosophy of the domain. To be enjoyed alongside white meat or goats’ cheese.

About the Producer Lise et Bertrand Jousset

Domaine Lise et Bertrand Jousset was founded in Montlouis-sur-Loire in 2004. The vineyard, which spans around 8 hectares of vines aged between 5 and 100 years, is grown organically, largely following biodynamic principles. On certain parcels, machines are banned, with work carried out only by hand or with horses. The harvests are also carried out by hand. In the winery, the processes are very natural with little intervention, with a pressing that is slow and gentle. No additives are used aside from very small doses of sulphur. Vinification takes place in barrels of 225, 400 and 600 litres with a maximum of 10% new wood in order to avoid marking the wine. The iDealwine has found a particular favourite in the wines of Lise and Bertrand Jousset, their cuvées being frank, flavoursome, elegant and precise. Some truly fine Loire Chenins!
