About the Winemaker
Nicolas Reau operates Le Clos des Treilles, a small natural wine domaine in Anjou, in the Loire Valley of France.
Nicolas came to winemaking from an unlikely path—he was formerly a professional pianist before transitioning to viticulture. He acquired Le Clos des Treilles in 2002 and has since established himself as one of the Anjou's most respected natural vignerons, working primarily with Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc.
Farming & Cellar: The domaine is farmed organically with biodynamic principles. Nicolas hand-harvests all fruit, uses indigenous yeasts, and ages wines in neutral barrels and amphora. Wines are bottled without fining, filtration, or added sulfites.
US Natural Wine ships once a week, every Wednesday. All orders should be placed by Tuesday at noon in order to be picked up from our distributors and out on Wednesday's delivery truck.
Shipping cost is 35 bucks a box (up to 12 bottles) so we highly encourage picking up more than 1 bottle for the best value! Remember, all orders over $200 get FREE SHIPPING!
At $35, shipping cost is on par with most wine ecommerce. Ultimately, we eat the cost of shipping more often than not because wine can be damn heavy. We can't thank you enough for your understanding!
