Le Fief Noir Ô TEMPS SUSPEND TON VOL Pétillant 2023

A pure Chenin Blanc sparkling wine, crafted in the “ancestral method,” in which a wine is fermented almost dry then bottled, leaving a touch of residual sugar and yeast in the bottle to naturally create a delicate effervescence (“pet-nat.”) “O Temps…” is extra brut, with a thrilling stony intensity and full-bodied floral energy, waves of stone fruits and small red berries, wonderfully complex and pure. The wine’s name comes from a line in the poem, “The Lake” by French poet Alphonse de Lamartine (1790-1869) from his collection, Méditations poétiques.
