Claude de Nell

The Clau de Nell winery is located in a privileged location in Anjou on the Loire. The wines have been inspiring the wine world since the beginning of the millennium. Due to financial difficulties, the winery could only be saved by selling it. Fortunately, the renowned vintner was considered to be Anne-Claude Leflaive from Burgundy as a fan of the wines of Clau de Nell. At the latest with the engagement of the Grande Dame of the Chardonnay, the winery moved into the focus of the wine world. Leflaive is famous for the perfect expression of a microclimate based on a single grape variety. The team at the Loire follows this guiding principle until today.

Almost all wines are single-varietal. The only cuvée of the winery is made from Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon and bears the euphonious name of Purple. This is not meant to be a nod to Bordeaux. It is much more a successful symbiosis of two grape varieties that work wonderfully together. Wonderfully intense, full of berry fruit and generously expansive on the palate.
