Cosmos 2023

Pierre Ménard

Pierre Ménard makes precise and refined wines in the Loire. The slopes of the Coteaux du Layon are schist-rich, and Cosmos is an excellent expression of Chenin in sweet form. There's a classic balance of richness and acidity that is captured in this cuvée with beautiful harmony. Crafter with late harvest grapes, the wine builds layers of honeyed fruit, dried apricot and a gentle spice. Despite its natural sweetness, a bright line of acidity keeps the palate lifted and vibrant. A balanced sweet wine that feels both generous and precise, with plenty of life ahead.

The plot used to belong to his parents who withdrew some of the vines from the cooperative contract. A year later, Pierre added up two new plots ...
