Domaine Belargus - Pithon Paille

Saint-Lambert du Lattay, Loire The Domaine Pithon-Paillé has 26 hectares of vineyards, and is located in St. Lambert Du Lattay in the Loire Valley, about about 25 km south of Angers. Jo- Pihon, with retirement time approaching, sold the estate in 2018 to the young Ivan Massonnat, a great wine lover, but continues to work at the company as a consultant. Ivan changed the name of the winery, 'Chateau Belargus', in honour of Jo's favourite wine 'Belargus de Treilles'. Jo- Pithon revolutionised Anjou in the early 1990s by practising precision viticulture from which he produced wines of character, sometimes extreme, that excited the curious and the amateur alike. With his wife Isabelle Paillé, he expanded his scope and the Pithon-Paillé estate has become a real benchmark for great whites, sweet and dry, with the Chenin blanc variety from the Loire as a base. With the Chenin Blanc grape variety, in the Loire, from different soils and appellations, a variety of wines are produced in the Loire, ranging from dry to semi-dry to sweet/bottled.

Harvesting takes place in several stages to harvest the grapes at the right time of ripening or withering. The wines ferment with indigenous yeasts to fully respect the value and differences of each vintage. In the vineyard and in the cellar, no chemical fertilisers chemical fertilisers, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, but only compost and natural infusions. Agricultural practices in the vineyard and cellar are carried out following the lunar calendar. The wines are aged in wooden barrels for 12 to 24 months. The dry wines are produced from grapes grown on the best soils of the 'Côtes', from ripe, golden, but not botrytised grapes to better preserve their freshness and fruitiness. For the sweet wines, the main objective is not the quantity of sugars, but the search for the aromas and flavours imparted to the wine by the magic of the "Botritis Cinritis". wine by the magic of "Botritis Cinerea".
