Vin de France Whaka Piripiri Mai Clos des Plantes - Olivier Lejeune 2020
Established at the heart of Anjou's Coteaux de Layon, Olivier Lejeune learnt the tricks of the trade for ten years at Felton Road, the famous Central Otago domain in New Zealand that never ceases to impress critics. In 2017, he met Mark Angeli of Ferme de la Saisonnière, a fervent advocate of natural wines. This learning experience was followed by a meeting with a regional star, Richard Leroy, from whom Olivier purchased a few parcels. He brought a second burst of life to the vines, having spent a whole year working the 3 hectares with a pickaxe. In terms of the soils, this is a superb terroir where we find schist veined with quartz and volcanic rock. The land is treated with eco-friendly principles in mind. His first cuvée, Poësis, is a pure Chenin that saw immediate success, much like the 100% Cabernet Franc Pelo cuvée. You won't want to miss a single vintage!
