Benoit Courault 'Le Verger de l'etang' Rouge, 2022

Regular price $44.00

This is made from 75% Grolleau and 25% Pineau D'Aunis. Light, juicy, and savory, but with incredible depth and structure. We would pair it with katsudon over rice with a fried egg and steamed cabbage on top. Benoit Courault is not the son of a winemaker, but went to study wine early on, working in the Beaune until 2006 when he found 5 hectares of vines in the Loire, and has never looked back.

Details

From the Importer: Benoit Courault is a young and established vigneron in Faye d’Anjou, a little village south of Angers along the Layon river. Not a son of a winemaker, early on, Ben decided to study wine. He went to Beaune. From 2003 until 2006, he worked with the famous vigneron Eric Pfifferling from Domaine L’Anglore in Tavel.

Back to his native Loire, he found 5ha of vineyards and started his estate in 2006. Benoit’s aim is to propose authentic wines of excellent quality produced with a constant concern for the natural balance of life cycles, a statement that you will find on his label “Vignes cultives dans le respect du vivant”. Ben’s practices are simple and traditional, organic farming, use of the horse, natural vinification, very little use of sulfites, no fining and no filtration.
