Trinity - 2024 - Vignoble de l’Ecu
Fred Niger
A nose of black cherry, sweet spices, and thyme, with minty notes... On the palate: this is some clean, crisp juice – fruity and structured, with fine, sapid tannins, and a lot of purity!

A blended cuvée, 80% Grenache and 20% Cinsault, produced in collaboration with an anonymous vigneron friend. The vines are farmed organically, with biodynamic principles, planted on red clay, pebble and gravel soils covering a total of two hectares, facing South. Harvested by hand, with yields around 45 hl/ha. Natural vinification: the grapes are moved by gravity, 100% de-stemmed, followed by 15 days in vats with indigenous yeasts, and pneumatic pressing. Matured for 10 months in concrete vats. Bottled without fining or filtration.

Fred bought Vignoble de l'Écu in 2010, with its perfect soils cultivated organically since 1972, then certified biodynamic by DEMETER in 1998. He’s been collaborating with Guy Bossard since 2014, the master of Muscadet. The pairing is simply miraculous. Fred, a novice at winegrowing but an unparalleled taster, knows exactly what he wants and what he intends to do for wine in the Muscadet....
