Les Tailles Rouge VdF, Jean-Christophe Garnier 2019

Originally from Brittany, Jean-Christophe spent years working as a sommelier in upscale restaurants when he became obsessed with natural wines and some of the winemakers who make them. He started his own winemaking venture in St-Lambert-du-Lattay in 2002 with only 2.3 hectares after mostly on-the-job training with Mark Angeli in Anjou (La Ferme de la Sansonnière) and Pierre Parcé in Banyuls (la Rectorie).

The nose exudes notes of red fruits and spices. The palate is soft and silky with wood notes and fine tannins.
