Tasting note
Electron Libre is a luminous white wine from the Loire Valley's Touraine-Oisly, crafted by visionary winemaker Nicolas Barbou. This cuvée channels Barbou’s bold winemaking ethos—an approach shaped by his collaboration with Jean-Yves Bizot and enriched by international inspiration.
On the palate, Electron Libre enchants with lively gooseberry, verdant grassy notes, and a polished mid-palate that strikingly balances the crisp finesse of Sancerre with the uplifting exuberance of New Zealand styles. A community reviewer awarded the 2022 vintage 93 points, praising its harmonious structure and expressive fruit profile.
