Domaine René Mosse, Moussamoussettes Pet Nat Rose 2021

 Previously, the Mosses had owned a wine-bar/wine retail in Tours, and they credit the great vignerons they met there, among them Jo Pithon and François Chidaine, as the impetus to become winemakers. They studied viticulture and oenology at the agricultural lycée in Amboise where two of their teachers were Thierry Puzelat (Clos du Tue Boeuf) and Christian Chaussard (Domaine le Briseau). They spent two years working in Côte-deBeaune, then bought the estate in St-Lambert in 1999. They work 13ha of vines, most of them planted with Chenin blanc (nine ha), and Cabernets franc and sauvignon (three ha), the rest is planted with Gamay, Chardonnay, Grolleau Gris and Noir.
