Clos Thierriere, Vouvray Petillant Quietude, 2021

Twin brothers Guillaume and Baptiste Frey purchased 12 hectares in Vernou-sur-Brenne during the pandemic, training under Vincent Carême and among natural winemaking neighbors. Their first vintages achieved immediate success, establishing Clos Thierrière as a promising new voice in Vouvray. This zero-dosage Crémant from 100% Chenin showcases 24 months of aging on lees, early-picked for acidity, and no fining or filtration. Traditional method sparkling from organic conversion vineyards creates gastronomic wine shaped by silt and sandy soils' distinctive minerality.
