Since taking over the family domaine in 1993, fourth-generation winemaker Gilles Gaudron has cultivated a remarkable estate comprising 50 small vineyard parcels across 27 hectares. Planted on limestone-clay soils, the estate's closely spaced goblet-pruned vines, many over 30 years old, are meticulously hand-harvested. Alongside his father Sylvain, Gilles produces exceptional, traditional Vouvrays that showcase intense fruit characteristics and a striking sense of place. The estate's 700-year-old, naturally temperature-regulated cellars house 1,000 metres of tuffeau (limestone) galleries, providing an ideal environment for long, slow fermentation using natural yeasts.
Crafted from 30-year-old Chenin Blanc vines, produces a rich and luscious wine that envelops the palate with notes of crisp apple and ripe quince, complemented by a pronounced mineral edge that reflects the estate's unique terroir. This elegant expression of Vouvray promises to delight and impress with each sip. An absolute show stopper.

Find out more on our Deliveries page.
Delivery Times
We will look to have your delivery with you within 3 working days of receiving the order but please ask if you need it by a certain date and we'll do our best.
Vintages
We will endeavour to deliver vintages as advertised but they often change faster than we can update (we're pretty slow). So, again, it may be wise to confirm before ordering if you're in need of something particular. Please note: Some bottle images may not show the current vintage.
Surcharges
Surcharges often apply to deliveries outside mainland England so wise to confirm before you order. Indeed, Northern Ireland is beyond us unless shipping charges agreed beforehand.
Returns
If something is wrong with your order or it's not what you expected, please get in touch and we'll sort it out. We'll look to rectify any mistakes where possible.
