Chenin Lovers Must Not Miss – Why Domaine Laureau Is the Future of Savennieres
Damien Laureau 被公認為 Savennieres 新一代領軍人物之一🌟。法國權威葡萄酒評論雜誌《La Revue du Vin de France》已經封佢做「未來之星」。試一杯你就即刻明白點解:清得透徹、能量十足、礦物味同熟果香完美平衡,真係一試難忘。
他只經營10公頃細小而陡峭嘅片岩葡萄園:種植覆蓋作物、嚴控產量、等果實熟到金黃先採收(刻意告別傳統青採做法)。酒窖用原生酵母、極少添加硫磺、不進行攪拌,耐心陳釀18個月。成果是純淨、礦物感強烈、充滿張力的白詩南,既可放幾十年,依家開一樣好飲。😋
酒莊出品:
• L’Alliance – 年輕藤,果味豐富,最易入口,礦物尾韻
• Les Genets – 沙質片岩,柔順花香,超易入口
• Le Bel Ouvrage – 黏土片岩地塊,礦物鹹鮮層次、陳年潛質極高
• Roche-aux-Moines – 頂級酒款,含火山岩脈,年產只約100箱,煙燧石、杏桃與金銀花香氣
• Les Raisins de l’Amitié – 清新輕盈(11%酒精度),梨與蜜桃風味,充滿果香
• L’Aurore – 霜凍年出品(只得2,400瓶),杏仁、蜂蜜、蜂蠟加燧石風味
無論你係剛開始接觸Chenin Blanc,定已經有成櫃Chenin,Domaine Laureau嘅酒都好值得一試。
Damien Laureau is widely regarded as one of the leading figures in Savennieres today🌟. La Revue du Vin de France has already crowned him “the future star of Savennieres”. Taste one glass and you’ll understand why — the clarity, energy and sheer beauty he pulls from these schist slopes are that compelling.
Working just 10 hectares of tiny, steep schist parcels, Damien farms with life and precision: cover crops, low yields, golden-yellow ripeness (a deliberate move away from the old green-harvest style). In the cellar: native yeasts, minimal sulphur, no batonnage, and a patient 18-month elevage. The result is pure, electric, profoundly mineral Chenin that sings of wet stone and ripe fruit – built to age for decades yet irresistible right now.😋
His Wines:
L’Alliance – generous and instantly welcoming, with intense fruit and a mineral finish from younger vines
Les Genets – silky, floral, approachable from sandier schist.
Le Bel Ouvrage – powerful, salty, built for long ageing from clay-schist sites.
Roche-aux-Moines – the top cuvée, micro-parcel with volcanic seams, ~100 cases – smoky flint, apricot, honeysuckle
Les Raisins de l’Amitié – fresh, light (11%) and juicy, pear, peach
L’Aurore – rare (2,400 btl) from frost vintage – almond, honey, beeswax, flinty depth
Whether you’re just discovering Chenin or you already have a shelf dedicated to it, Domaine Laureau’s bottles have become essential.
