Savennières Bigottières Terra Vita Vinum 2021

This is the brainchild of Luc, immersed in the world of wine since childhood, and Bénédicte, a former wine merchant. Terra Vita Vinum entered a new chapter when the couple took over the estate in 2019. They completely reimagined every aspect of viticulture and winemaking to craft wines that are as natural and authentic as possible.
New methods were introduced as soon as they arrived: harvesting grapes in 8 kg crates; transitioning to biodynamic viticulture (Demeter certification in 2020); gaining a better understanding of the vines, their environment and biodiversity; bringing cows into the rows; cultivating each plot separately; and using different vessels (wooden barrels, amphorae, concrete eggs) for ageing… This 34-hectare estate full of promise is primarily focused on gaining a better understanding of the Chenin and Cabernet Franc varieties at the heart of its parcels.
Definitely a gem you won’t want to miss!
