La Niverdiere, Renaissance, 2019, Chinon, Loire, France

Martine Budé has been making wine in Chinon , Loire, France since 2015. Her wines demonstrate all that’s great about natural wines - purity, energy, charm, and an undeniable expression of place and time, fruit and soil.

This wine, Renaissance, was grown on limestone, gravel, clay soils giving a more approachable, easier driving style of wine. She ages in concrete eggs rather than your usual Chinon oak. The result is a wine that is beautifully mature, with floral notes on the nose, touches of herb and brambly, smoky, developed flavours on the palate.
