Anjou Pompois

Delicious with beef, pork, game and mild, soft cheeses.

Nicolas Réau Pompois Rouge is aged for 12 months in used oak barrels without filtering or clarifying before bottling. No sulphur is added either. In short: the essence of the Loire Valley in a bottle.

Following a manual harvest, Nicolas Réau holds onto the principle of minimum intervention in the winery. With Nicolas Réau Pompois Rouge, this philosophy is maintained with long pre-fermentation macerations (5 weeks), native yeasts, fermentation without temperature control and using cement tanks.

Nicolas Réau is a natural wine producer in the Anjou sub-region of the Loire. Réau has been a seminal figure in the French natural wine movement since the early aughts and a regular participant in La Dive Bouteille. Réau is guided by the principles of biodynamic farming.
