The Chenin's of Pinon are some of the best in Vouvray due to their impeccable farming, diversity of clay, limestone, and silex soils, and deliberate, albeit low-intervention, cellar work. Unlike the other top producers in Vouvray, whose sparkling wines come from the youngest vines, the Pinon Vouvray Brut comes from 45 year-old vines on great clay/limestone terroir. It is made in the traditional (Champagne) method with two years resting on the lees before disgorgement with a roughly 7 g/l dosage in this vintage. Delicious young, especially in a warm vintage such as 2022, the wine ages beautifully, reaching another level of compleity after ten years in the cellar. Highly recommended!
