Passionate about wine, we have been managing our vineyard in organic agriculture for several years, respecting the terroirs, ecological balance and biodiversity. By signing this wine, we are contributing to the preservation of the fauna and flora of the Loire Valley.

The vineyard has been farmed organically since 1996.
Terroir
The ten hectares of vines are planted on a majority of tuffeau chalk terroir, supplemented by a small part of sandy surface soil.
In the vineyard

Winemaking
The harvested and destemmed grapes undergo maceration in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats for 10 days.
Fermentation is triggered by immersion of the marc cap in concrete vats.
