Description
The singularity of a rich, full-bodied chenin blanc
The estate
Founded between 800 and 1000 by Benedictine monks, the wine estate of Château de Fosse-Sèche was owned by the Church for several centuries. Passionate about wine and ecology, Guillaume Pire took over the estate in 1998, with the ambition of crafting distinctive Loire wines that authentically express their native terroirs. In 2010, Guillaume was joined by his twin brother, Adrien.
Château de Fosse-Sèche oversees a 15-hectare vineyard with a singular geology, farmed organically and biodynamically. Made up of flint stones and iron oxide, these soils also benefit from a cool, windy exposure. Alongside their wives, Guillaume and Adrien Pire are deeply committed to an environmentally respectful approach. As a result, one third of the land area is dedicated to vine growing, while the remaining two thirds are devoted to preserving biodiversity and nature.
The wine
Château de Fosse-Sèche is renowned for its Loire wines with a unique personality, harmoniously combining precision, purity, and power.
This age-worthy chenin blanc, aged on lees, stands out for its rich, full-bodied texture. It reveals captivating aromas of honey and flowers, emblematic of its aromatic complexity.
