Laurent Saillard Ça Se Discute 2023
Loire // France
Ça Se Discute, a prime red chiller arriving just in time for Spring. Made using two different varieties of Pineau d'Aunis, regular Aunis and Aunis Tenturier, bought in from outside of Laurent's Clos Roche Blanche domaine. The grapes here coming from Domaine de Cambalu in neigbouring Francueil- just 15 minutes from Laurent. For the 2022 iteration of this cuvée Laurent chose to de-stem the fruit, giving it a ten-day maceration, before ageing in fibreglass tanks to keep the fruit impeccably fresh. The wine is vibrant and bright and feels featherweight on the palate. Alongside beautiful aromatics you’ll find plenty of little red fruits intertwined with just a hint of those cracked white peppercorn notes we love from this varietal.
