Clos Thierriere Vouvray Les Murs 2021

Clos Thierrière is a fresh estate, with 2021 being their first vintage. Twin brothers, Guillaume and Baptiste Frey, fell in love with winemaking during the pandemic under the tutelage of Vincent Carême. They purchased 12 hectares in Vernou-Sur-Brenne amongst a few neighboring natural winemakers and have produced a wonderfully successful first and second vintage of AOC Vouvray.

This parcel, with a surface area of less than one hectare, is located on the southern slope of the Vernou-Sur-Brenne commune and is comprised of a thin layer of top soil over tuffeau bedrock. Some of the vines in this parcel are almost a hundred years old. Named after the tuffeau walls that are visible when you stand on the plot and look west towards one of the appellation’s slopes.

Aged for 12 months in barrique.
