Natural Wine from Charente
A discreet region with deep wine-growing roots
Long associated with the production of Cognac and Pineau, Charente is a wine region often overlooked by the general public when it comes to still wine —and even more so natural wine. Yet, this oceanfront region, blessed with a temperate climate, hides true treasures, supported by clay-limestone soils conducive to agriculture that respects nature.
Colombard, the Charente grape variety par excellence
Among the region's historic grape varieties, Colombard occupies a central place. Known for its freshness, liveliness, and aromas of white fruits and citrus, it is now being revived through more natural approaches, free from additives and oenological makeup.
“Bain de Soleil”, a sunny vintage born from a collaboration
It is in this spirit that our Bain de Soleil vintage was born, the fruit of a collaboration between Marée Haute and Laurent Bordes , a passionate and talented winemaker from the Chais du Port de la Lune in Bordeaux .
This natural wine , made from Colombard Charentais, offers a vibrant profile: lively, luminous, with notes of citrus peel, fresh pear and a beautiful mineral tension. A true bubble of sunshine in the glass, to be enjoyed with your feet in the water - or at the table, with seafood.
