Bouysselet

2024 vintage. The first time I tasted this very rare grape variety, it was saved from extinction by Philippe and Diane Cauvin at Domaine La Colombière. These days a few estates produce Bouysselet wines, and intriguingly Château Anthonic in Moulis, grafted Bouysselet on Merlot vines, with the first production expected in 2025. I suspect this is produced from young vines, but the resulting wine is very interesting. The closest thing that comes to mind is Chenin Blanc, but it seems to have a character of its own. I will taste a few others soon. Abv. 13,5%. — 10 months ago

Ronceray Anjou Chenin Blanc 2020

Dry Chaume! It’s like a reductive, lean brother to Savennieres. It has a tense/saline nose with fresh apples, hazelnuts, flint and smoke. Palate is minerally and super focused, persistent acidity, alcohol in balance. It will take time to develop — 4 years ago

Grand Lopin Anjou Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 2020

Vintage 2020 | from 0,8 ha in Chaume | Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon 35 y old | 12 m barrel and amphora aging | while the reds from mid Loire like Saumur, Bourgueil and Chinon can have a natural charm, the Anjou wines play hard to get. A certain harshness, rusticity is very typical. I like that. Even with 5 hours in Decanter this red with nice red fruit and some cedar is not ‘easy’. It is just character. | paired with a rib eye. — 7 months ago

Le Bouysselet Blanc Fronton White Blend 2023

2023 vintage. A whole different wine compared to the 2024 Plaisance. As in this case the Bouysselet was grafted on Merlot vines, the young vine effect doesn't play a role. Yellow, light golden colour. Intense nose with apricot,flowers, beeswax and toast. In the mouth it is powerful,with concentrated stone fruit ( apricots, peaches, prunes), subtle almond bitters, fresh acidity, and a slightly honeyed long finish. Unlike the Plaisance, this is very unique, maybe closer to Timorasso than Chenin Blanc. Producers are aiming for a Fronton Blanc Bouysselet appellation these days, which would be great for the better producers in this underestimated region. Abv. 14%. — 10 months ago
