A geophysical engineer spent 20 years reading the earth, then switched to understanding grapes. Emmanuel Haget's debut from a tiny Loire parcel showcases Pineau d'Aunis—one of winemaking's rarest treasures, also called Chenin Noir. Eight days of skin maceration builds the wine's peppery, cherry-spiced character while indigenous yeasts and organic farming capture pure varietal identity. This 2024 is a snapshot of a winemaker learning an ancient grape on former biodynamic-pioneer vineyards in the Loire.

More about Emmanuel Haget

After two years of training with another Loire grower, Emmanuel Haget took over the 3.8 hectare estate of retiring biodynamic pioneer Philippe Gourdon in Le Puy-Notre-Dame, in the Saumur corner of the Loire. His first vintage came out in 2017. He farms biodynamically, harvests by hand, and treats the vines with his own nettle and horsetail teas. His focus is Pineau d'Aunis and Cabernet Franc, made into peppery, lively reds that show what conviction in the vineyard can do.

Perfect Pairings

Serve lightly chilled with charcuterie, roasted chicken, or even lighter beef dishes. The peppery spice brightens fatty foods.

Unimpressive "natural" wine

Thin, too much volatile acidity, no finish.
