The terroir
the wines
the expressions

Our white and rosé wines reveal all their subtlety and charm while our red wines express fully the character of the terroir. Their secret? A soil of flint-clay-stones called "perruches" for our parcels on hillside and "bournais" for our parcels on the plateau, where the soil is more clayey and dense. Also, added to the equitation, being under the oceanic influence that protects us from the first spring frost produces a micro climate that gives an optimal maturity to our grapes. It is the winning formula to produce all of the different types of wine, each with its own particular character.

Sauvignon Blanc, the internationally recognized grape variety, is the flagship of the Touraine Appellation and, it makes up 2/3 of our vineyard. In addition: we have Gamay, Cabernet Franc and Malbec varieties to elaborate our reds and Pineau d’Aunis blended with Gamay for our rosés. All these grape varieties our found in our range of Touraine wines called “classique”. Our Chardonnay is used for elaboration of a fine sparkling wine using the traditional method.

Thanks to our parcels which are classified and planted on the slope, we also vinify two parcellar wines: A white wine, Touraine Chenonceaux cuvée “La Voûte” made with 100% Sauvignon Blanc and a red wine, Touraine Chenonceaux cuvée “L’Esprit des Dames” blending of Malbec and Cabernet Franc.
