Domaine Saint Vincent - Pierre Adrien Vade - Trezellieres 2020
Domaine Pierre-Adrien Vadé is located in Saumur-Champigny, in the Loire Valley. He is son and grandson of winemakers and has been making wine in this appellation since 2014. His vineyard, nestled between the Loire and Thouet, takes its specificity from a clay-limestone soil rich in tuffeau, a chalk characteristic of the Vallée de la Loire and which has a strong capacity to accumulate solar heat during the day to restore it at night. The wines of Pierre-Adrien Vadé have been in conversion to organic farming since 2015 and are produced according to a plot selection. Each plot is vinified differently: the first in barrels, the second in vats and the fermentations are carried out with natural yeasts. He uses his father's winery, which has complete facilities.
Trezellières is made from Cabernet Franc grown on a clay-limestone soil. The vinification is traditional, in stainless steel vats with low maceration.
Grape variety: 100% Cabernet Franc
