Pithon-Paillé

Loire Chenin Blanc from Anjou and Savennières, rated by major critics.

Pithon-Paillé works with Chenin Blanc across the Loire Valley's most prestigious terroirs. The winery's portfolio centers on three flagship expressions: 4 Vents Côteaux du Layon, Coteau des Treilles Anjou, and Clos Pirou Savennières—each a distinct interpretation of the region's signature white grape. Chenin Blanc in these appellations ranges from off-dry to bone-dry, with the mineral precision and aging potential the Loire is known for. Wine Spectator, Decanter, Wine Advocate, and Falstaff have all assessed the winery's releases. The wines reflect the complexity that emerges when Chenin Blanc meets the slate, schist, and clay soils of Anjou and Savennières, where acidity and structure anchor the varietal's natural stone-fruit and floral character.
