Agnès et René Mosse, Savennières 'Arena' 2020

One of THE iconic Loire estates, their influence is clearly evident locally and internationally. They're based in Saint Lambray-du-Lattay, a commune within the broader Coteaux du Layon appellation of the Anjou (famous for botrytis-influenced sweet Chenin Blanc). Production here focuses on dry wines however, which is good, because dry Chenin (by dry I mean dry with the slightest touch of residual sugar to balance out that hectic acid) is one of life's great pleasures. Everything on the estate has been organic since the start in 1999, with biodynamic principles also at play here. Fermentations are natural, with minimal SO2 used throughout the process.
