Buy Wine from Jerôme Saurigny
It first took Jerôme Saurigny's discovery of the traditional winemaking process for him to realise that what he wanted was the opposite. The art of making it without additives, without laboratory yeasts, was a possibility that was not considered at the oenology school where he studied in Bordeaux, something that made him feel extremely uncomfortable. When he finished in 2000, he started working in the region with the clear vision of buying a domaine to be able to develop his own ideas. Today he makes natural and biodynamic wines in Coteaux du Layon, in the Loire area of France.
Jerôme Saurigny's vineyard
While he had learned about all these biotechnological products he was supposed to use, there was a lot of detail about manipulation in the winemaking process, but little theory about less interventionist methods. Until the day he met Patrick Desplats and Sébastien Dervieux of Les Griottes, two great natural winegrowers. Thanks to them, this young winegrower was able to recognise his true oenological instinct. The reason, the root. Discovering that he could work without additives, Jerôme opened his winery in 2007, in Coteaux du Layon, a mountainous region south-west of Angers. The area is the Loire, undoubtedly the cradle of biodynamics.
The wines of Jerôme Saurigny
From his very first vintage, Jerôme started to vinify naturally, with indigenous yeasts and without sulphur. Among its most renowned bottles are the young red, Jerôme Saurigny Salamandre 2017 and Jerôme Saurigny Txindoki 2018. The former is ideal for an aperitif, with a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon, Gamay and Grolleau grapes. The second is a non-crianza white wine, with the perfect blend of Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Grolleau, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.
