(Wine Enthusiast Score 90) Made from a single-vineyard plot, dedicated to 90 year old Chenin Blanc vines. "This dry wine has a creamy texture, with delicious apple and citrus fruits and lively acidity. Produced from biodynamically grown grapes, it is spicy with ginger and a lightly honeyed aftertaste."

L'Insolite is from a plot of vines some 90 years old, grown on clayey-limestone with sandstone and flint subsoil. The grapes are harvested in several picking sessions according to ripeness (three selections (tri) in the vineyard, with the last pass being only nobly rotten grapes), and yields no more than 18hl/ha. Organic work is done on the soil with special tisanes. Fermented in 12 hl oval foudre to accentuate minerality for 4 months. Aged on the fine lees for 12 months with batonnage.
