🍇 Winemaking
Beginning on October 10, 2023, late-harvest botrytised grapes were carefully handpicked in successive passes to capture their peak ripeness. Fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks was adjusted to the grapes’ natural sugar levels, followed by aging on fine lees until spring, ensuring both freshness and depth before bottling.
🏰 The Estate

Specialists in Chenin Blanc (locally known as Pineau de la Loire), they farm 47 hectares in Vouvray and Rochecorbon, with deep respect for tradition and terroir. Seven generations of savoir-faire live in every bottle—making this Vouvray Moelleux not just a wine, but a story you can taste.
