Saumur "L'Original" 2024 – Chenin Blanc Clément & Florian Berthier
L'Original Saumur is an ode to the nobility of Chenin Blanc. Clément and Florian Berthier chose the limestone terroir of the Saumur region to craft a white wine of great purity. The nose is complex and elegant, blending notes of quince, ripe yellow apple, acacia honey, and that chalky minerality so typical of the area. On the palate, the wine surprises with its masterful balance between a fleshy, almost velvety texture and a striking acidic tension that lengthens the finish. Vinified with minimal intervention and careful aging on the lees, this Saumur expresses the vibration of the "tuffeau" stone with remarkable sincerity. A characterful Chenin—both generous and vertical—proving the Berthier brothers' expertise beyond their native Sancerre.

The Limestone Identity of Chenin For this cuvée, the Berthier brothers prioritize the expression of the chalky soil (tuffeau), which gives Saumur wines their unique energy.
-
Respectful Viticulture: The grapes come from vines grown according to sustainable agriculture principles, favoring the plant's natural balance.
-
High-Fashion Winemaking: Slow fermentations using indigenous yeasts to let the grape's complexity shine. Aging on the lees provides richness and roundness, counterbalancing the natural vivacity of the Chenin.
-
The "Original" Spirit: As with the entire "L'Original" range, the goal is to deliver an unadorned wine, unfiltered or lightly so, to preserve all the sap and fruit radiance.
