Couldn't load pickup availability
La Bulle is Fabien Brutout's expression of 100% Chenin Blanc as Pet Nat from the Loire, showing what this noble variety can do when it's made using the ancestral method. Delicate, refreshing, and citrus with notes of lemon, green apple, and lychee. Making it a perfect aperitif wine, or also paired well with brunch or a sundowner.
After completing a university course in wine and obtaining a degree in 2007, Fabien Brutout worked for 2 years as an apprentice with Sébastien Brunet in Vouvray. He joined Mathieu Cosme at the end of 2008 and committed to the estate full-time.
In 2013, following a discussion and tasting with some Belgian friends, the idea of creating a range of wines complementary to those produced by Mathieu began to take shape. 'Le Facteur' was born, and Fabien was given complete freedom regarding the winemaking.
In 2018, he settled in Noizay, taking over 4 hectares of vineyards in the A.O.C. Vouvray and Touraine. Meanwhile, with his brother, a farmer who took over the family farm, he planted 2 hectares of vineyards in the north of Indre-et-Loire, in the hamlet of L'Encloître (Beaumont-la-Ronce). On these family lands with limestone subsoils, which saw vineyards before phylloxera, Chenin is predominant but also coexists with Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pineau d'Aunis, and Gamay. This variety fuels Fabien's creativity in his winemaking for the years to come. Now self-employed, Fabien Brutout heads a vineyard of 7 hectares spread over several terroirs.
La Bulle is an ancestral method sparkling (a single fermentation started in the vat and then refined in the bottle with natural sugars and indigenous yeasts) – a Pet Nat. This wine is made exclusively from young vine Chenin Blanc grapes located in Hameau de l'Encloître (Beaumont-la-Ronce). All of the grapes are hand-harvested and farmed organically.
Serve it well-chilled as an aperitif, with brunch, or as a sundowner. This is honest, refreshing Loire Pet Nat at a great price, perfect for those looking for something delicate, fun, and easy-drinking.
