fouassier & raynal le ciel peut attendre 2017
Reference: 8740Stock: 11 (stock immediately available)
Condition: bottle in perfect condition
certainly the most emblematic domain of sancerre, fouassier is today represented by the tenth generation in the persons of benoît and paul, the two cousins managing the exploitation. the fouassier estate is still located on the magnificent hillside of the town of sancerre, overlooking the mythical loire valley. the domain is a book in itself, an epic filled with twists and turns. jules fouassier, ancestor of the current owners, was one of the first to use copper and sulfur to fight against cryptogamic diseases. although the vineyard covers almost 60 hectares, the size of the area has never prevented the winegrowers from working in parcels. the family carries out a traditional and artisanal culture of the vineyard where more than 80% of the work is done manually, while striving to respect the environment. committed to the respect of the terroir, biodynamic viticulture, certified by biodyvin, has been used in the vineyard as well as in the cellar since the early 2000s. biodynamic preparations such as the famous horn dung and horn silica are applied at specific times to increase the microbial life of the soil and the vigor of the vines. like jonathan pabiot in pouilly-sur-loire, the fouassier estate gives pride of place to sauvignon and pinot, the star grape varieties of the appellation. fouassier & raynal le ciel peut attendre 2017 cuvée born from a beautiful friendship between 2 bon vivants and wine enthusiasts, this cuvée is a blend of several terroirs, parcelled out for a very good balance. ¬ what is a meal without its good wine, try it is adopted.
