Pierre henri Cosyns - Chateau Grand LAunay
After starting a career as an engineer, Pierre Henri Cosyns realised he needed to change and felt compelled to return to his origins and take over the family winery. He decided to follow the organic and biodynamic path to minimize the environmental impact, and for the identity and character of the wines which results from it. The vinification reflects the same approach Pierre Henri has in the vineyard: a complete ban of any chemical additives, spontaneous fermentations, soft extraction, and ageing mainly in concrete vats. Genuine, generous wines that are great value for money.
Sauvignon ‘Atlantique’
Bright and zesty, with lifted aromas of lime, grapefruit, and gooseberry layered over subtle herbal notes. The palate is lean and refreshing, marked by saline minerality and brisk acidity, finishing clean and invigorating. A versatile and approachable Sauvignon that balances Loire-like tension with Atlantic freshness.
