Vignobles Patrice Moreux

Vignobles Patrice Moreux is rooted in the Loire region's two flagship Sauvignon appellations, Pouilly Fumé and Sancerre, bringing together two winegrowing families through the marriage of Jeannin Corty and Raymond Moreux in 1955. The Pouilly Fumé vineyard covers 30 hectares on 4 terroirs, including the famous "Loge aux Moines", a historic site occupied by Benedictine monks as early as the 11th century. Today, this 4.5-hectare Monopole overlooks the Loire on Kimmeridgian marl soils similar to those found in Chablis. The other Loire appellation, Sancerre, is part of Patrice Moreux 's portfolio , extending over 6 hectares of clay-limestone vines in Chavignol and Crézancy. Finally, since 1979, Vignobles Patrice Moreux has owned Domaine des Vingtinières, a 35-hectare Côtes de Provence estate in the Massif des Maures.
