We are very happy to say that Jungle Vino has joined the revolution. They now offer Domaine de Cadette Bougoune Blanc and Clos Roche Blanche "Pif." These are two of the better values in our book.
Cadette is in the Vézelay appellation of Burgundy but its soils are like that of Chablis, Kimmeridgian clay. Jean Montanet, a good friend of Bernard Raveneau, works his vineyards orgaincally, hand harvests, uses only indigenous yeast and old barrels. This is chardonnay in its purest form.
Clos Roche Blanche is, perhaps, the producer we're most proud to work with and support. It's an estate in the Touraine (loire valley) run by two of most passionate and kind people you will ever meet: Didier Barrouillet and Catherine Roussel. They've worked orgaincally since the mid-ninties and their vineyards are incredible, surrouned by forest therefore allowing a distinct and complete ecosystem to develop. They are like no other. Many vignoron talk of their vineyards as ecosystems but Clos Roche Blanche has truly achieved it! "Pif" is a blend of cabernet franc and cot and is a true terrior wine, warm, earthy and fragrant.
Please go down to Jungle Vino and try these wines. Support them for selling wines that are made by farmers who care about keeping their products, and the world around them, as authentic as possible.
