Winegrowers since 2002 -The Des Grousilliers perpetuate the tradition of the estate: making Saumur wines to the best of what their terroirs can give them.
The estate is ideally located in the middle of the Loire Valley, with the hill of the Moulin de l'Horizon, the highest point of Saumurois at 110m above sea level protecting the vineyard from the westerly winds. This hill and its hillsides also offer a multitude of microclimates, which also contributes to the production.
The Loire is France's longest river, running almost 400km from the Massif Central westwards to the Atlantic, and gives its name to one of the country's most diverse wine regions. Spanning some 57,000 hectares across Loire-Atlantique, Anjou-Saumur, Touraine, and the Centre, it produces the full range of styles - fresh, light whites from Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc, elegant reds and rosés from Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, and Gamay, plus sweet and sparkling wines. Its western vineyards enjoy a maritime Atlantic climate, while the more easterly Centre is cooler and continental, and its chalky limestone soils help the wines retain their signature freshness and acidity. Home to 69 appellations, including the famous Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, the Loire offers something to please every palate.
