TERRA VITA VINUM INFUSIONS VIN DE FRANCE 2022

Terra Vita Vinum's "Infusions" exemplifies the biodynamic philosophy that defines this Anjou Noir estate, where Bénédicte and Luc Briand work meticulously with the region's distinctive greenish-grey and purple schist terroir. This innovative Vin de France harmoniously blends manually harvested Cabernet Franc (40%), Grolleau (25%), Gamay (25%), and Chenin Blanc (10%), cultivated with profound respect for biodiversity through mechanical soil management and natural preparations instead of chemicals. The winemaking employs partial whole-bunch short macerations followed by gentle pressing and 12-month aging partially in barrels, with minimal sulfites (56 mg/L) to preserve fruit integrity. At 12.5% ABV, this unfiltered wine delivers an original aromatic profile characteristic of Loire Valley varietals, offering a generous palate that culminates in a refreshingly vibrant finish, enhancing its immediate drinkability while expressing the authentic character of its terroir.
