Stéphane Bernaudeau Les Terres Blanches 2020 is a dry white wine produced from Chenin Blanc in the Anjou appellation of the Loire Valley, northern France. The former assistant of Mark Angéli, Stéphane Bernaudeau owns just over 2ha of vines in the Martigné-Briand district of Anjou. Using biodynamic farming methods and minimal intervention in the cellar, he crafts wines of extraordinary finesse, terroir transparency and ageability. These wines are among the most sought-after in the Loire Valley. Les Terres Blanches is a textured, mineral Chenin Blanc sourced from a tiny parcel of vines growing on calcareous soils.
