Producer Information

Domaine Vigneau-Chevreau is a family-run estate established in 1875. The 28-hectare Domaine consists of vouvrillon soil made up of limestone, clay and silex. The latter of these soils bears an abundance of flinty stones on the surface and is most favorable to the cultivation of Chenin Blanc, giving the wine its aromatic diversity of ripe quince, baked apples and acacia honey. The vineyards are harvested at various levels of maturity to allow for dry wines (Sec) with a unique flinty, mineral characteristic; semi-dry wines (Demi-Sec) that show a distinct balance of sweetness, acidity and fresh fruit; and sweet wines (Moelleux) with incredible richness, complexity and longevity. The Domaine produces about 12,000 cases per year, half of which is in high quality sparkling wines made by the traditional méthode champenoise. The Domaine is certified organic by Ecocert, and the vineyards are in fact tended biodynamically, which involves even stricter standards of organic wine-growing. Although this method involves much more work and considerably lower yields, the benefits to the long term condition of the vineyards, and therefore the quality of the wines, are dramatic.
