Domaine Sauvète

The family business is located in Monthou sur Cher, in the Touraine appellation, on the heights of the Toucheronde hillsides. The 17 hectares of vines are cultivated organically to respect the environment and restore the characteristics of the terroir in the grapes and ultimately in the wines. 

The Sauvète vineyard consists of 8.5 hectares of Sauvignon, Chenin, and Chardonnay for white wines planted on wind-blown sandy soils with clay-limestone subsoils and flint; and 8.5 hectares of Gamay, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, and Pineau d'Aunis for red and rosé wines on stony soils of flint, perrons, and spongia. 

Today, new facilities, cellars, and a visitor center allow the estate to continue its upward trajectory in terms of quality. New opportunities are emerging, thanks in particular to the development of wine tourism on the estate.
