Didier Chaffardon Lin Est Lune Idem Irradie White 2024

Type: White Grape: Chenin Blanc Region: Anjou, Loire Valley, France Style: Still, dry, aged in old oak barrels Flavor: Concentrated, straight, full of energy — the kind of Chenin that stays with you The bottle: Hand-harvested, indigenous yeast, no fining, no filtration, little to no sulfur. Whites go into old oak barrels. Low yields, nothing added, nothing rushed. The producer: Didier Chaffardon is one of the founding figures of natural wine in Anjou, inspired in 1994 by Pierre Overnoy and Gramenon. He farms just 3 hectares like a garden, names his wines like poems, and makes bottles that are unrepeatable by design.
