Les Infiltrés - NV Vin de France, Blanc, “Raging Bulles”

Based in Saumur Puy-Notre-Dame, a new focal point for colder climate Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc, the enthusiastic and charming Frédéric Hauss enters the wine world as a former cinematographer who worked extensively behind the camera for the big screen and TV. In his early forties, and in the middle of the Covid pandemic, he decided to redirect into this equally artistic life that provides a greater connection to nature. Some are quick to understand fundamentals (perhaps those who already mastered them in another craft are advantaged), and it’s clear that Fréd also understands artistic composition, and already how to craft a wine to capture emotion, discreetly.
