Crisp, very clean and precise citrus flavours. Quite austere, but more vibrant than the 2020, with a long finish, this exhibits a return to the classic, dry wines of the Loire before the effects of climate change became apparent. Very serious early frosts between 6-8 April caused the domaine to lose 70% of its crop. Overall, the year was cooler than other recent vintages with selective picking on 17, 24 and 25 September, and a yield of only 7hl/ha. Vinified and aged in a mix of wooden casks, demi-muids and barriques averaging five years old for 21 months, followed by a further 12 months in stainless steel. Bottled early June 2023.
