Description

Marie-Lise Et Thomas Batardiere Winery. Clos des Cocus is a climat adjacent to Montbenault on the coteau de Faye d'Anjou, the prestigious right bank of Layon. Thomas's 0.6 ha plot (planted in 1968) is on the top of the hill so it is exposed to dry and cooling winds, perfect for disease prevention and acid preservation, a gentle slope facing south-west with no hardly topsoil (20-30 cm) forced. vine roots to penetrate deep into the shale bedrock. An austere terroir that gives rise to wines worthy of aging, with character and complex. Fermentation and aging in barrels from 1 to 6 years for 10 months, transfer to stainless steel for a few more months before bottling in October with low SO2. "Les Cocus" tends to reduce naturally, so decanting is good for the wine in its youth. Live, deep, multi-layered and almost chewy.
