Réserve du Pigeonnier 2019 - Château De Fosse-Sèche

Tasting notes

"From 60+-year-old vines yielding no more than 11 hectoliters per hectare, macerated for 20 days and aged in concrete eggs for 14 months, the 2019 Réserve du Pigeonnier offers a spectacular deep, ripe and intense, slightly toasty yet still pure, refined and floral-scented bouquet of raw meat, black berries, cherries, crushed stones, ivy and licorice intertwined with this unique elegant, iron-scented Fosse-Sèche note. Medium to full-bodied yet concentrated, round, intense and firm on the palate, this is a fresh, refined and elegant Cab Franc that is based on perfectly ripe and concentrated dark fruits and this nervy silex acidity of Fosse-Sèche. The finish is powerful yet always pure, mineral and refreshing. This is a noble red from Saumur, unfortunately declassified as Vin de France. "

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

The estate is run by two passionate people, twin brothers Guillaume and Adrien Pire and their respective partners. It is in a family atmosphere that the two couples work and live at Fosse-Sèche since 2012 with a common goal: to share their passion for wine and nature. Together, they give birth to wines with a strong identity from this exceptional terroir.

Only 15 hectares are planted out of the 45 hectares that the estate offers. Of these 15 hectares, 8 are planted with Cabernet Franc and 1 ha with Cabernet Sauvignon for the reds and 5.5 ha with Chenin and 0.5 ha with Chardonnay for the whites.
