Les Davoche
Vin de France
La Sardinière 2023 - Vin de France - Les Davoche
identity : Grenache blanc, direct pressing, 12 months in barrels
I love this white, with its super-fresh nose (minty) and hints of numerous aromatic plants. The palate is not to be outdone, always fruity and very fine! What finesse!
Blend: 100% Grenache blanc

What is natural wine?
Natural wine, also known as vin naturel, is a philosophical choice aimed at rediscovering the natural expression of terroir. The grapes are processed according to the principles of Organic Agriculture: no chemicals, pesticides or herbicides. The grapes are harvested manually and mechanically to preserve the living character of the wine during vinification. No chemicals are added to control fermentation, with the exception of sulfites in very small quantities in certain cases (the maximum tolerated doses of total SO² are 30mg/l for reds and 40mg/l for whites).
No human intervention alters the bacterial life of the wine. The flavour of natural wine is therefore preserved thanks to:
● organic or biodynamic cultivation in the vineyard;
● manual harvesting;
● use of indigenous yeasts for fermentation;
● no harsh techniques for the wine such as reverse osmosis or pasteurisation;
● no oenological inputs apart from no or little added sulphite.
Our selection of natural / no added sulphite wines
Have you ever tasted a wine without added sulphite? This is a wine with no added sulphur. This means that winemaker allows the natural development of yeast to do its work, from the vine to the bottle. Natural sulphur compounds may form at very low levels, but no sulphite is added by humans in the process. And the good thing is that natural wine without added sulphite is
healthier and does not give you a headache. All the manipulations during the winemaking process are gentle and slow so as not to disguise the soul of the wine, far from the formatted and conventional practices.
By choosing this ethical and responsible path, the winemaker works his terroir by ploughing with care. He protects the subsoil from which the roots of the plant draw, and cares for the ecosystem as a whole.
