“Poiesis” comes from the same Greek root as the word “poesy”. Poesy is the the art or composition of poetry while Poiesis is the activity through which a person brings something into being that did not exist before. These concepts are at the heart of Clos des Plantes.

This is a remarkably pure and expressive single-vineyard Chenin, sourced from the 'Les Cailloux' vineyard in Anjou. Here the soils are rich in schist and quartz, imparting a deep minerality to the final wine that compliments layers and layers of stone fruit, citrus and beeswax.
