Le Facteur, translates to 'The Postman' and is a partnership between Mathieu Cosme, an established biodynamic producer in the Loire region, and his once-importer, Fabien Brutout. Their vineyard is managed biodynamically with a strict "hands-off" approach to winemaking. They plow their land using horses, hand-harvest grapes, and use no additives in the winemaking. This bottle is left to rest on the lees for 20 months to add layers of complexity.
