We're talking to you about his Winery
Thierry Puzelat, a pupil of Marcel Lapierre and other agro-culture enthusiasts, makes natural wines, without artifice, linked to the identity of their terroir. Of the 16 hectares of Clos du Tue-Bœuf (10 on the AOC Cheverny and 6 on the AOC Touraine), he has made it the banner of the new viticulture of the region. In the 1960s, the Touraine vineyard was renewed and when Thierry and his brother took over Winery in 1994, the vines were unharmed and the purchase of land and acres of forest in the surrounding area perpetuated the family tradition of preserving the ecosystem. Thierry then set up a solo "trading" business with carefully selected grapes from neighbouring winegrowers (8 hectares in all), equally rigorous in their viticultural methods. The aim is to work with grape varieties other than those of the Clos du Tue Bœuf such as Pineau d'Aunis, Côt, but also Chenin and Sauvignon from other terroirs (Vouvray, Pouilly Fumé). This workaholic is not satisfied with his native region and also markets natural foreign wines. | This kamikaze of "nature" is an institution in itself, and if the wines do not get their appellation of origin, Vins de France will do well for wine lovers! In all, about twenty vintages are on offer... The vines give low yields (35 hl/ha on average) and do not tolerate any chemical fertilizers. The harvest is transported to the winery in refrigerated lorries if necessary. Native yeasts, temperature control, no chaptalisation and no racking for fermentations which are done in truncated cone barrels with CO2 and whole bunches for the reds and in barrels on their lees for the whites which do not undergo any settling. Most of the wines are aged in barrels without filtration. In the end, wines that do not leave one indifferent! |
