    The vineyards of Domaine Vacheron stretch across well-exposed slopes, where limestone and clay combine to create wines of great elegance. The Loire Valley's temperate climate, with its warm summers and cool winters, promotes optimal grape ripening. Each plot is meticulously tended, allowing the winemakers to draw the very best from their terroir. The diversity of the soils contributes to the complexity of the wines, making each vintage a unique expression of its environment.

    Owner and history

    The Vacheron family, who have managed the estate for over 240 years, embody an exceptional winemaking tradition. Currently run by the brothers, they continue the family legacy with passion and innovation. Their devotion to the land and their respect for ancestral know-how are reflected in every bottle.

    Vinification and aging

    The winemaking process for the 2020 Marnes begins with a manual harvest of carefully selected grapes chosen for their quality. After gentle crushing, the must ferments in stainless steel tanks, allowing for precise temperature control. The wine is then aged on its fine lees, which enhances its texture and complexity. No oak is used, thus preserving the purity of the Pinot Noir and the expression of the terroir. This meticulous process reflects the estate's commitment to authentic and respectful winemaking.
