Domaine Van Remoortere

The Van Remoortere estate, located in Morogues in the Cher department since 1989, comprises four hectares of vineyards within the Menetou-Salon appellation. Formerly run by Joseph Van Remoortere, it is now in the hands of his son, Antoine. After returning home following various experiences—including stints in South Africa and working with Julien Zernott at the Domaine du Pas de l’Escalette—he took over the family estate in 2011, renaming Château de Maupas the Domaine Antoine Van Remoortere.

The Van Remoortere estate is situated on Kimmeridgian clay-limestone terroir. This young winemaker is moving toward organic farming, with respect for the soil and the environment. This terroir yields two grape varieties unique to the appellation—Pinot Noir and Sauvignon—on the estate’s vineyards in Fourchet and Reigny.
