Purity of fruit with textural depth

Mineral

Precise

Vibrant

Textured

Stone fruit + citrus, mineral tension, saline finish.

Nose: White stone fruit, citrus zest, pear, a whisper of almond.
Palate: Generous yet precise—integrated acidity with linear drive, plus a tactile mid-palate from extended lees contact.
Finish: Saline-tinged mineral thread, long and vibrant; fleshy but finely etched, with a clear sense of Sologne terroir.
Serve: Cool, not cold. Straight from the fridge the fruit holds back; ten minutes on the table and it speaks.

A stony Loire white shaped by quartz-rich clay and ageing on lees in older barriques.

Natural white from the Loire Valley, crafted by Etienne Courtois in Soings-en-Sologne.

Vines: Predominantly old vines — 60% Menu Pineau, 40% Sauvignon Blanc
Soils: Clay with quartz-rich stones
Farming: Organic
Cellar: Hand-picked grapes · gentle press · indigenous yeasts · ageing on lees in older barriques
Additions: No added sulphites · no fining or filtration

Quartz reflects its stony, mineral soils—purity of fruit with textural depth.
