Saumur Champigny Le Petit Saint Vincent 2021 75cl
Dominique Joseph
Cabernet Franc grape variety
In 1990, Dominique Joseph took the reins of the family farm, which extends over 12 hectares in the heart of the Saumur-Champigny appellation, perched on a hillside overlooking the Loire valley. Since then, the vineyard has been cultivated according to the principles of organic farming, demonstrating Dominique Joseph's commitment to environmentally friendly practices.
Terroir and soils: Limestone tuffeau ground 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.

Family owned since the 17th century, the estate has been handed down from father to son since 5 generations, and each has contributed its stone by adapting to its time. Today this beautiful family story continues ...
Robert SEROL had taken over the family farming of 1964 polyculture, with 2 ha of vines at a time when the vineyard was in distress. Persevering and passionate, he still chose viticulture. Accompanied by his wife Marie-Thérèse, they grew the estate and obtained the AOC Côte de Roannaise classification.
Stéphane SEROL took over the torch in 2000. Respectful of its soil and wine lover, he enlarges the estate, broadens the range of reds, plant Viognier and offers new rosés. After modernizing the farm, with Carine, his companion, they focus on the environment and the selection of terroirs.
Today the 27 hectares of vines in organic farming conversion, produce a range of reds and rosés which all reveal a different personality of the Gamay and give wines fresh and easy to drink. Since 2010, a white from Viognier comes in addition.
4 8 people work daily in the vineyards and Lucie welcomes you to the cellar on weekdays.

Saumur Champigny Terres Rouges Arnaud Lambert 2022 half bottle
Winegrower Saint Just on Dive
Since 1996, the Lambert family has cultivated vines with passion on the Domaine de Saint-Just, and more recently on the vineyard of Château de Brézé, a unique micro-terroir... Every day, they prioritize the life of the
soils while preserving the life of useful flora and fauna. It is in this perspective of organic cultivation that the vine gives the best possible aromas to our wines.
The very rich history of Château de Brézé has always been intertwined with that of wine. From the XNUMXth century, the white wines of Brézé were sung by the Good King René, and appeared on the prestigious tables of the nobility and great people of this world, such as Louis XIV, the Sun King. Chenin Blanc, a typical grape variety for Pays-de-la-Loire wines, is found in the Château's plots, a unique expression thanks to the dense clay-limestone soils of Brézé. Today, it is the specificity of these very particular soils that Arnaud Lambert works and restores, with the aim of being able to restore this exceptional vineyard to its former glory!
Chinon Vieilles Vignes Domaine de la Commanderie 2022 75cl
Grape variety: 100% Cabernet franc Soil: sandy loam
The vinification takes place on the basis of moderate temperatures (23°C.) and macerations which do not extend too long in time, so as to preserve the flattering aromas. It is a light, fruity and very aromatic wine which presents round and silky tannins. It is pleasant to taste from its earliest youth and offers subtle aromas of red fruits and spices on the nose and flavors of violets and liquorice on the palate. This wine is particularly seductive with charcuterie and river fish, as well as white meats.
Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil La Croisée Domaine de la Cotelleraie 2022 75 cl
The Vallée family has been established for several centuries on the best wine-growing sites of Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil. Currently, four generations live in the village: the grandmother Denise Vallée Moreau, the father Claude Vallée and Gérald, the grandson and son. Bertille, Gérald's daughter, was born on the first day of that famous heatwave in August 2003. Gérald took over in 1997. The estate extends over 26 hectares shared between the gravels of the terrace, the siliceous limestones of the low hillside and the gravelly hills of the Loire Valley. This is where the vines of prestigious places flourish like: Les Mauguerets, La Cotelleraie, La Mineraie, Le Vau Jaumier, Les Perruches... The cultivation of vines is ancestral as evidenced by the numerous Gallo-Roman remains ( villas, Roman roads, amphorae). It evolves with man and with generations. In 2004 the manual harvest was carried out on the entire estate. Then came the pleasure of welcoming beautiful bunches of grapes into the cellars. Thermoregulated vats are undeniable progress for the successful vinification of larger volumes and their storage. Four small vintages are transported into wooden vats, which means punching down by foot during fermentation. They will give L’Envol. In 2002 the barrel cellar and in 2003 the barrel cellar were completely restored, in 2004 it was the turn of the old barrel cellar: tufa stone, rubble stones, beams and oak and chestnut flooring. They arbitrate the oak barrels. For a year, the beautiful vintages evolve there. In 2004 the manual harvest was carried out on the entire estate.
