From the beginning, they have truly wanted to have fun in life and to make unadulterated natural wines long before the hipness of the natural wine scene took hold. Recently, they started the three-year process of seeking biodynamic certification. In fact, they have become international icons for the natural wine movement in an area where the climate and soil can make organic practices difficult. They are based in Bourgueil in the Loire Valley and have an impressive spread of vineyards ranging in soils and vine age. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eOne might say the innovative couple is well ahead of the game and doing it with charm and grace. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eEven though the power couple shares the vineyard and cellar duties, the Vouvray project is one that Catherine calls her own. The vines for this Chenin are 40 years old and undergo a short time in stainless steel before being released in the spring. Though many Vouvrays age well, this one will continue to age but also is meant to enjoy immediately. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"wineCRAFT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31532534595607,"sku":"French:FR071KL007-25","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/9076\/4311\/products\/BretonLaDilettanteVouvray-01.jpg?v=1631037523","url":"https:\/\/hartandcru.com\/products\/catherine-et-pierre-breton-vouvray-sec-la-dilettante-loire-valley-france-2025","provider":"HART \u0026 CRU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
