A new parcel of Chenin that they planted in 2020, just to the east of the village of Rablay. The lieu-dit is called La Barangerie. The site is atypical, as it is completely isolated, and the soil here has much more eroded clay and schist. This was the first time that they have harvested fruit from these baby vines, and so chose to only release it in magnums. Spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Aged in 20hl foudre for 12 months, and then settled in tank for 3 months before bottling. Unfined, unfiltered. 12.5%.
