Ch. de Fosse-Sèche Panthalassa

117,40 €

If the Cabernet Francs of Château de Fosse-Sèche constitute the premier league of France and place themselves among the top Cabernet Francs on the planet, it is the whites from Chenin Blanc of the brothers Guillaume and Adrien Piré, such as Panthalassa, that bring the ultimate acclaim and make the skeptics of this planet fanatically seek out their wines. Named after the Paleozoic-Mesozoic ocean, Panthalassa is a purebred Chenin Blanc from grapes that have undergone botrytis but is vinified into a dry wine, with minimal residual sugars to be precise. The vines are cultivated biodynamically and the wine ferments spontaneously and matures in concrete eggs with its lees. A totally exotic Chenin, mellow, wonderful, seductive.

More info

Complex and complex with 'myriad' subtle nuances, white fruits, exotic character, sweet spices and honeyed notes. Volume and richness in the mouth that is balanced by the acidity and intensities that accompany the wine until its aftertaste. Extremely persistent and long-lasting, a wine that will have enormous aging potential. In any case, Ligira and Chenin Blanc are remembered for their aging abilities and here 20 years is an easy 'bet'. Another unique Chenin in our portfolio.

    Penetrating tensions with beautiful oxidation supported by notes of citrus peel and candied lemon. Give it time to open up and it will throw a party of aromas with saffron and curry, tobacco leaves, nuts such as walnuts and roasted almonds, and earthy notes of truffle. Full of umami on the palate, minerality reminiscent of peat and shellfish, intense...
