About the domain :
Xavier Weisskopf farms 9 hectares in Montlouis and 4 in the Touraine appellation. His terroirs are planted with old vines resulting from massal selection, which favors high-flying cuvées. The whites impress with their purity, in an appellation with no shortage of talent. An elite winemaker, one of the best addresses in the area.

Domaine noté (guide 2026) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
Originally from the Oise region, Xavier Weisskopf set up his own winery (17 ha, organic) in 2005. Nothing had prepared him for this profession, but his studies in Chablis introduced him to the world of wine, which led him to the "Viti" in Beaune, then to Gigondas and finally to the banks of the Loire.

Rated wine (guide 2024) 91/100 Summer review
Domaine rated (guide 2026) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winemakers with good production levels, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the domain :
Clémence and Xavier Weisskopf set up their vineyard in 2005 with very little money and a cellar made of odds and ends. In recent years, they have become one of Montlouis-Sur-Loire's leading names. The 17 hectares, divided between Montlouis and Touraine, are grown Organic. Touche Mitaine (flinty clay), Les Borderies (clay-limestone, 40-year-old vines), Le Grand Poirier (clay-sandstone, 67-year-old vines)... A myriad of terroirs has been isolated in the bottle, in whites that aim for aromatic nuance, delicacy, and expression with the integrity of chenin, dry or with residual sugar, depending on the mood of the vintage. Wines of great sincerity that delight the taste buds!

a straight Chenin, perfectly balanced with fresh, delicate white flowers. Sumptuous tension and elegance.
