Jacky Blot is a star Loire winemaker. A broker by trade, he fell in love with the wines of Montlouis and set out to produce a small range that would startle the appellation out of the shadows of its neighbour, Vouvray. Starting with 8 hectares in 1989, he now has 25, every vine painstakingly cared for organically. Ploughing between rows to encourage vines to dig deeper, hard pruning and deleafing are just some of his methods. Jacky insists on hand picking and hand sorting in the vineyard to ensure only the finest berries make it into his wines. In the cellar he’s equally meticulous. Triple Zéro is his bone-dry fizz, with none of the dosage that most Champagne method wines receive. Proof that some of the finest bubblies aren't Champagne.
