Deboutbertin is a small-scale, natural wine project based in the Loire Valley, France. Winemakers Stéphanie and Vincent Deboutbertin are committed to minimal intervention, organic farming, and harnessing the pure expression of their terroir. Their wines are known for their vibrant, mineral-driven character and refreshing acidity. Pale red, just shy of a rosé and What. A. Nose! Soaring, zippy red berry fruit and cracked white pepper; minutes later, a touch of meaty reduction made pretty with touches of rose petals. Floral, fresh and appetising. A remarkable charmer. No SO2 added.
Deboutbertin is a small-scale, natural wine producer. The winery is run by Stéphanie Debout and Vincent Bertin, who left their engineering careers to pursue winemaking. They focus on minimal intervention and a holistic approach to viticulture. They use agroforestry techniques, interplanting their vines with other trees and plants to create a healthier ecosystem and avoid monoculture. All vineyard work, including plowing, is done by their horse, Anatole, minimizing their carbon footprint. They primarily work with Chenin Blanc, Pineau d'Aunis, Grolleau, and Cabernet Franc.
