Patrick Desplats Caroline White 2023 is a natural white wine made by Patrick Desplats in Val-du-Layon, Anjou, in the Loire Valley, France, under the Vin de France designation.
It is made from 100% Chenin Blanc, sourced from the Caroline vineyard, which covers approximately 0.4 hectares and is planted with century-old vines. The vineyard lies on relatively flat land north of Val-du-Layon, on schist and clay soils.
The grapes are hand-harvested and directly pressed. Fermentation takes place spontaneously with indigenous yeasts, and the wine is made in Georgian qvevris. It is bottled unfined and unfiltered, with no added sulphites.
