ABOUT THIS WINE
The Brochet Facile Sauvignon Blanc 2023 is a Vin de France from the Loire Valley, produced by Ampelidae. Founded in 1995 by Frédéric Brochet, a winemaker with a deep connection to the land and a doctorate in Oenology, the estate is dedicated to organic viticulture. The wine's identity is shaped by the chalky soils of the region, which are rich in flint and clay. The 'Brochet' range, including the 'Facile' series, reflects Frédéric's creative approach, with the label artfully depicting a pike, a translation of his surname.
