Description
Thierry Hesnault La Centenaire du Vauperroux 2023 is a dry red wine made from 100% Pineau d’Aunis — the red-branch sub-variety (“à rameaux rouges”) — grown on ungrafted vines planted in 1902 in the lieu-dit Vauperroux, near Chahaignes in the Sarthe, northern Touraine, Loire Valley. The 0.60-hectare parcel grows on sandy soils with silex and iron, on its own roots, in the middle of a forest. Thierry Hesnault destemmed the grapes and fermented them on the skins for five weeks, then aged the wine 15 months in old barrels in his tuffeau cave cellar. Bottled unfined, unfiltered, and without any added sulfites. Vin de France.
