Pithon-Paille Grololo Red

$31.99

ince 1978, Jo Pithon has been a star of the Loire. He’s been reinventing the Côteaux-du-Layon for dry white wines for over forty years. Dessert wines were the be-all-end-all here before Pithon began to focus on making his now famous dry Chenin’s. He was the first in the area to switch to organic farming and champion living soils, the first in the area to create hyper-terroir wines from individual parcels after the Burgundian fashion, and an early adopter of natural winemaking.

One of the world’s most famous glou glou drops, this Grolleau pairs with almost everything and goes down all too easily. Chill it down, let it quench your thirst and rest your mind. Grolleau is a gorgeously low alcohol grape taut with the food friendliest of acid and a rustic charm. Carbonic maceration highlights the red fruited character of this indigenous Loire variety while keeping the tannins low. A wine made simply from tenderly pampered, biodynamically farmed vines that produce faithful and nourishing grapes year after year
