En Roue Libre, a French term for freewheeling or neutral gear, honors Thibault's hands-off natural winemaking methods and his love for cycling. Thibault used to race in a club before dedicating himself to full-time winemaking, and the bike remains an enormous weekend pleasure for him. The grapes used for En Roue Libre are Gamay. The vineyard consists of clay-silt soil, and the vines have an average age of 40. Thibault himself farms the vineyard organically.
The winemaking process involves hand-harvesting the grapes and traditional whole-bunch carbonic maceration. Spontaneous fermentation occurs, and the wine is aged on fine lees in concrete vats for eight months. There is no fining or filtration, and a maximum of 2ppm of SO2 is added at bottling. The wine has a light, fruity, and crunchy personality. It is best served well chilled with good charcuterie or goat cheese.
