2025 is shaping up to be one of the finest vintages of the decade in the Loire, with the harvest setting a new record for earliness, under particularly favourable conditions. A dry, warm year, marked by two summer heatwaves, almost no mildew pressure, and grapes in excellent condition.
Its intense salmon-pink colour, with the bright highlights characteristic of the vintage, carries generous aromas of crushed strawberries, boiled sweets, and confectionery. The nose is expressive and immediately appealing, hinting at a palate to match: round, generous and indulgent, carried by jammy red fruit — strawberry and raspberry — with an overall balance preserved by a welcome freshness on the finish.
