About Le Batossay Ouech Cousin

“Life without wine would be in vain, wine without life is not.” Baptiste Cousin includes this phrase on the back labels of his bottles, and it is his statement of intent. In a simple sentence it is clear to see what he is talking about: totally natural wines, made from biodynamic vineyards, with total respect for the land and with minimal intervention in the winery. This is no surprise since this Frenchman, based in the Loire Valley (in the northwest of France), in Anjou, in the village of Martigne Briand, has inherited the legacy of his father, Olivier Cousin, the famous natural winemaker who decided to hand over care of his Gamay, Grolleau, Chenin Blanc and Pineau d'Aunis plots to his son in 2012.

This is when Baptiste’s work began, which continues with the principles he experienced growing up: working the vines by hand, ploughing with horses and using biodynamic preparations (without added sulphur) to combat the dangers of spring frosts and autumn mildew. The result is clear to see with greatly expressive and pure natural wines like the Le Batossay Ouech Cousin red wine made with Grolleau.

In the winery, built by his great-grandfather in the centre of Martigné, Baptiste Olivier continues to vinify without sulphites. Following carbonic maceration, Le Batossay Ouech Cousin ferments naturally from native yeasts. No pumps or machinery are used (except for his grandfather’s vertical press). The wine and the musts are extracted by gravity, culminating this laborious process with aging in barrels and bottling without clarification, filtration or adding sulphur.

The best way to taste a wine like the ones they used to make in the old days.

2020

Le Batossay Ouech Cousin 2020 is a smooth red wine. The nose presents notes of red fruits, spices and herbs. The palate is lively and fresh, with silky tannins. Store and drink within 3-5 years.
