Originally from Bordeaux, Thibaud Boudignon began to make wine under his own name from a scant 3.5 ha in the heart of Anjou and Savennieres in 2009. Knowing that the quality of his fruit was of most importance, he committed himself absolutely to the health of his vines, choosing to farm organically and spend the majority of his time in the vineyards.
From the lieu-dit ‘Clos de La Hutte’ in the hamlet of La Possonnière. Site of a former monastery. Planted in 2011 – massal selection
