Ferme de la Sansonnière La Lune 2022 - Mark Angeli

This 2022 La Lune Vin de France is a fine white wine from the Loire, produced by Mark Angeli at the Ferme de la Sansonnière from Chenin Blanc, the iconic grape variety of Anjou. Sourced from biodynamically farmed plots on terroirs of clay-gravel, sand and Carboniferous schist, this Chenin from the Loire is vinified using a minimally interventionist approach, then aged for an extended period in old barrels. The 2022 vintage reveals a complex nose with aromas of honey, quince and apricot, accompanied by notes of ripe fruit and a lovely mineral character. On the palate, La Lune 2022 offers a full-bodied and generous texture, underpinned by a crisp freshness and a mineral backbone that lends tension and length. This iconic cuvée from La Ferme de la Sansonnière expresses the full richness of Chenin d’Anjou, striking a balance between ripe fruit, freshness and lingering finish. Served at around 11–12°C, this white Vin de France is the perfect accompaniment to poultry in sauce, fish, shellfish or a mature goat’s cheese. This La Lune 2022 from Mark Angeli will appeal to lovers of great white wines from the Loire, Chenin, biodynamic wines and wines with ageing potential.
