2020 Thibaud Boudignon Savennieres 'Clos de la Hutte'

Based in Savennieres, Thibaud Boudignon is one of the new young stars of the Loire Valley. In addition to his prime plots in Savennieres, Thibaud also owns two small vineyards across the river on the south side of the Loire in the Anjou. Thibaud has worked with Philippe Charlopin in Gevrey Chambertin, Chateau Lafite Rothschild in Bordeaux (amongst others) and also in Australia before settling in the Loire, thereby building up a wealth of experience without having been born into a wine producing family.

Working organically in the vineyards he harvests by hand making successive tries throughout each vineyard ending with yields that are much lower than the appellation rules allow. 

Clos de la Hutte is a 7-hectare ancient religious site located in the commune of La Possonniere in the Savennières appellation of the Loire Valley where Boudignon- a rising star in the region- applies biodynamic farming principles to create this truly magical bottle.

Tasting Note:
The aromas leap from the glass before you take the first sip, and upon that the perfect combination of the Loire's wonderful minerality along with citrus notes and ripe green fruit. But that's really just the beginning.
