La Levée 2023 is a distinctive Sauvignon Blanc by Alexandre Bain, one of the Loire Valley's most respected natural winemakers. Sourced from the La Levée vineyard, this wine showcases Bain's biodynamic approach and philosophy of harvesting at full ripeness to express the vineyard rather than the grape variety.
Origin: Loire Valley, France Grapes: 100% Sauvignon Blanc Style: Rich, textured white wine Year: 2023 Alcohol: 14%
Vinified with indigenous yeasts and aged in used French oak barrels, La Levée is bottled without fining, filtration or added sulphur. The result is a wine of remarkable depth, balancing generous fruit with precision, freshness and mineral tension.
The nose reveals ripe citrus, quince, white peach and wild herbs, layered with floral notes and subtle hints of honey and wet stone. The palate is broad and textured yet vibrant, with saline minerality, lively acidity and a long, complex finish.
A compelling expression of Loire Sauvignon Blanc that pairs beautifully with shellfish, grilled fish, poultry, creamy cheeses or dishes featuring fresh herbs.

WHAT TYPE OF GROWERS WE WORK WITH
OIur wines are a reflection of nature's truest form. We partner only with biodynamic vineyards—places where vines are nurtured with a reverence for the earth and a deep respect for natural rhythms. These vineyards view the soil not as a means to an end but as a living, breathing ecosystem. By working in harmony with the land, they cultivate wines that are as alive as the soils they spring from.
Our wines hold the pure expression of the vine, untouched by chemical interference and guided by the wisdom of traditional methods. Each bottle carries an honest snapshot of its origin: the seasons, the hands that tended the vines, and the character of the soil itself. These are wines with a pulse, honest and unapologetic, offering a taste of nature in its unaltered state.
