2014 Renaissance tasting@Greniers de Saint Jean

Stéphanie and Vincent Deboutbertin,  Faye d'Anjou
Their first time at Renaissance
(above and below)



Just time this morning for a few photos from the Renaissance tasting before heading out to the Salon des Vins de Loire. Many more to be posted in next few days.

Benoît Amirault, Domaine Yannick Amirault
As ever good range of Bourgueil and Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil
Juicy 2012s look to be ready before more concentrated but closed 2011s

 Clément Baraut: very good 2011 Roche aux Moines, Savennières

Bernard Baudry in reflective mood – no surprise that he and 
Mathieu have again made a good range of recent Chinons

Deboutbertin is definitely my "coup de coeur". I met them at Enjoue Connection and since then do whatever I can to help them export their wines.
