2020Château De La Roulerie(White)
Château de la
Roulerie is situated in Saint Albin de Luigné (Loire) in the Layon region. The building goes back to the 19th
century, but there are also signs that go back to the 14th century.
Nowadays, the surface has 42 hectares (about 30ha chenin and 12ha cabernet
franc) planted on stone inclines (schist soils, what declares the minerality in
the wine). Today, Philippe Germain runs the property. The philosophy of the
owner is to offer a quality as high as possible for the best price. He switched
to biodynamical agriculture, uses little sulphur and he bottles in a sterile
atmosphere to give more ‘peps’ and vivacity to his wines. The berries are
harvested by hand and the vinification is done in a cellar where he vinifies to
the principles of gravity, this means the berries are not pumped into the
cuvees, they fall in the cuvee without any stress, to maintain vivid fruit for
the wine.
