This wine a special non-vintage bottling from Domaine Reverdy-Ducroux that features mainly fruit from the 2021 and 2021 vintages. It comes from a special vineyard along the Loire river with distinct Silex soils, that locals call “rocks”. It’s an energetic expression with clean citrus notes and an overwhelming freshness. It’s much more mineral-driven than any other wine from Reverdy-Ducroux lineup as it is the famous Silex soil that gives this one its chalky minerality.
