Though Boudignon has recently been generating a lot of buzz for the electrifying Savennieres and Anjou Blancs produced under his own name, he actually got his start at Soucherie, where he retains his position as winemaker.Château Soucherie has been around as an estate since at least the 19th century, but it wasn’t until 2007, when Thibaud was hired by new owner Roger-François Begûinot, that the estate began taking the necessary steps in the vineyard and cellar required for making great wine. Viticulture has moved towards organic in recent years, and harvesting is done by hand.
What importer Rosenthal Wine Merchant has to say about this wine...
This cuvée is essentially vinified exclusively for our use in the US market. The grapes, 100% Chenin Blanc, are sourced from the vineyard site “Les Rangs de Long” which is on the northern part of the estate but with south-southeastern exposure. The soil is a mix of clay and sand and limestone with some schist. The wine is vinified totally dry in cuve and aged on the fine lies for eight to nine months before being bottled. Approximately 12,000 bottles per annum are produced for the US market.

Loire Valley Wines
The Loire Valley is France’s greatest source of value for anyone looking for elegant, terroir-driven wines. Our collection celebrates the region’s great diversity, with the mineral-driven whites of Muscadet and Sancerre, the beautiful Chenin Blancs and Cabernet Francs from villages like Vouvray and Chinon, and natural wines from everywhere in the region. Sometimes wonderfully fresh and gulpable, sometimes serious and age-worthy, the prices are always very reasonable.
