Terroir and soils: Calcareous tuffeau soil covered with a thin layer of clay.
Philosophy : Organic farming (Ecocert certified in 2000)
Vinification and aging: In the cellar, the grapes are completely destemmed and then sorted again on the table before being vatted. The fermentations are traditional and in indigenous yeasts after a cold pre-fermentation maceration. Fermentation is gentle and lasts on average 20 to 30 days with regular pumping over and punching down. The wines are then sown in barrels or in demi-muids, the proportion of new barrels changing according to the cuvées and vintages. The Gauthier family is fortunate to have old caves carved in tuff as a breeding cellar, which serve as a cozy nest for wines. They rest there there, serenely, in a stable and caulked environment with natural temperatures ideal for conservation. This cuvée was aged in 2 and 3 wine barrels for 24 months. The wines are then bottled without filtration.

PYROS THE STONES OF AURELE 2020 TOURAINE GAMAY 75CL
Les Pierres d'Aurèle is a family wine estate of 20 ha located in the heart of the Loire Valley, a French wine region in the midst of a renaissance.
For ten years, the dynamism of young winegrowers has allowed the Region to rise to the rank of the best French vineyards.
It is in this spirit that we took over the vineyard in 2010 and that we work daily to produce high quality local wines.
The vines are grown on the clay-siliceous soils of Chenonceaux with the greatest respect for our environment. The vines, aged 15 to 105 years, have deliberately limited yields to obtain grapes of optimum quality.
Pierre-André Frot, agricultural engineer and oenologist, is a lover of the vine and its environment. Passionate about his profession, Pierre strives to transmit this passion through the wines he produces.
Passed by great houses of Bordeaux and Burgundy during his studies, he transcribes the rigor and finesse taught in his wines. Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, Pierre very quickly acquired the Les Pierres d'Aurèle estate after working as a banker for the first 3 years following his studies.
Today, alongside his wife, he leads the life he has always dreamed of between passing on his love of wine and sharing the good things in life.
Produced on hot and stony clay to flint soils, called Perruches, Pyros is a gourmet and fruity red wine. Very expressive on the nose, it reveals concentrated aromas of slightly jammy black fruits, as well as pretty peppery notes.
ANJOU VILLAGES THE DREAMER 2018 THE BLACK FIEF 75CL
Grape variety: 50% Cabernet Franc, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon
Le Fief Noir is a 30ha Estate in the center of Anjou Noir, near Angers, in the commune of Saint-Lambert du Lattay.
Anjou Noir is a unique wine-growing region at the end of the East Armorican massif and in the northwest of Anjou. Noir, or “Black”, because of the stone that made up its basement: Le Schiste. Formed 30 million years ago, the Anjou Noir shale has offered an exceptional diversity of soil relief through its history and its transformation through the ages. This stone is structured in a laminated model, which constitutes an ideal terroir for viticulture. Indeed, the high number of cracks in the rock allows the vine to develop its roots inside. Thanks to this, the roots will be able to explore a wide space and drain a wide variety of minerals. We will find in the wine all the originality brought by the schist.
Anjou Noir is also the meeting of one of the great grape varieties, Chenin, with schist. A unique terroir follows a unique grape variety: the chenin takes all its depth, and expresses its richness and its potential. We find here the Anjou Blanc, definition of freshness and minerality as in the Coteaux du layon.
Le Fief Noir grows its grapes organically. Chenin, Cabernet and Grolleau grow on a rich terroir of great diversity. At Fief Noir, the terroir is the winemaker's priority. Choose the right grape variety according to the composition of the soil, work the soil to promote the development of the roots of the vine over the years, eliminate weeds that compete with the vine or contribute to the warming of the soil at the end of winter .
Vinification: maceration for one month in vats with indigenous yeasts. Aged in barrels (2/3) and in jars (1/3) for 12 months.

Saint Martin Tower. It was in 1988 that Betrand MONCHIN embarked on the wine adventure in Menetou Salon, where his grandfather was already producing wine before the war. The plots, well established on the heights of the village of Morogues, consist of 10 hectares of Sauvignon and 7 hectares of Pinot. For almost 30 years now, Bertrand MINCHIN has been making the most of this magnificent Kimmeridgian terroir. Everything is done in the vines to produce the finest grapes: plowing, composts, control of vegetative balance, control of yields and respect for the 'environment (area labeled High Environmental Value).
A large part of the vineyard is harvested manually, to vinify each plot separately. It is in a perfectly equipped cellar (sorting table, carpets, thermoregulated vats, wooden vats, pneumatic presses, etc.) that he vinifies his grapes in a little interventionist way. The red ones cook a long time, are slightly drawn and dewatered manually. Whites undergo long pressing and ferment at controlled temperature.
