In the past decade or so, the town of Rablay-sur-Layon has become a small hub for dedicated, young winemakers in the Loire Valley. While the village was traditionally known for sweet wines made from Chenin Blanc, Geneviève Delatte and Nicolas Bertin of Bertin-Delatte have chosen a different path, expressing their terroir through precise, textured, and age-worthy dry wines. In 2008, Geneviève and Nicolas were able to purchase their own, small vineyard, a 3ha lieu-dit named "Echalier". Having worked with Mark Angeli and inspired by their neighbor, Richard Leroy, it was evident from the start that they would farm organically. In the cellar, the winemaking philosophy is very simple: intervene as little as possible and let nature take its course. The result is a set of distinctive and pure wines that are true to Geneviève and Nicolas' vision and terroir.
