Viticulture and Winemaking • Biodynamic viticulture. • Manual harvesting with grape sorting in the vineyard. • Spontaneous fermentation (wild yeasts). • No added sulfites, no filtration, or clarification during bottling. • Ingredients: just healthy grapes. The Chenin Blanc comes from the Varenne du Poirier plot, with gray-black schist from the Precambrian era (610 to 570 million years ago). Vines planted in 2009, east-west exposure on a high plain. The name "Varenne" also means "plain." First aged for 6 months in 225L barrels, followed by racking, a brief second ageing in fiberglass tanks, blending, massing in stainless steel tanks, and bottling. Winemaker This wine is a “four hands” collaboration between Christophe Kaczmarek and Jean-François Vaillant, winemaker at Domaine Les Grandes Vignes in Anjou. As always with Caaaaaaat, the wines are vinified, blended, bottled, and packaged at the estate. From the vineyard to the cellar, everything is done with respect, aiming to regenerate the soils, promote biodiversity, and respect the humans involved.
