Terres de Roa - Lunar - Red 2016

ROA is the acronym of Raisins - Organics - Attitude 3 letters taken from the uncommon letters of the 4 first names of the members of the family.
The name of this estate carries with it its convictions and its organic viticulture practices.
The Domaine de TERRES de ROA has indeed every reason to display its position since it is the only Domaine of the AOC Saint-Pourçain appellation in organic farming certified by Ecocert in 2009. It is therefore in respect of the he environment that Claudine, Luc Tisserand and one of their daughter, Loren now manage their vineyard which covers 18 and a half hectares and whose plots are spread over the municipalities of Monétay sur Allier and Breuilly Cesset.

The sandy soil of the first allows the fruit to express itself more, while the granite soil of the second allows the minerality of the terroir to prevail.

The winemaker has chosen here to diversify the grape varieties. If Chardonnay, Gamay and Pinot Noir are common in this region of the Loire Valley, Tressallier is a specificity cultivated only under the Saint-Pourçain appellation.

It is only since 2010 that the Domaine de TERRES de ROA vinifies on site its production of cuvées in red, rosé and white. Cuvée Lunaire, Cuvée Solaire… At the estate, the names of the wines also remind us that they are made with respect for the environment and natural rhythms. In the vineyard, Luc banned fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides and synthetic weedkillers. He now prefers natural preparations recommended by Organic Farming. Bordeaux mixture with protective properties is widely used in the vines. A fertilizing vegetable compost is also put in place. Plowing or controlled grassing alternate between the rows of vines to enrich microbiological life, promote biodiversity and aerate the soil.
Claudine & Luc's sustainable approach continued beyond the vineyard itself, particularly when choosing materials for the construction of a bioclimatic cellar (wood frame, hemp and lime bricks, cellulose wadding, lime ...). There, winemaking takes place as naturally as possible. Fermentation takes place without the addition of exogenous yeasts and in the manner of the ancients. Only a little sulfur is added sparingly.
