Charles Joguet
A family property located in the heart of the Val de Vienne, the Charles Joguet estate extends over 30 ha planted with Cabernet Franc and 2 ha with Chenin Blanc. A forerunner of the parcel-based approach in Chinon, from the end of the 1950s, the vineyards, spread out on both banks of the Vienne, express the rich diversity of terroirs that the Chinon appellation offers. Cultivated in organic agriculture since 2008, the vineyard and the wines are certified Ecocert (AB) since the 2016 vintage.The work in the vineyard and the soil is adapted to each parcel of land throughout our vineyard to allow each of our vines to flourish in the best conditions.This care taken throughout the year favours small yields, good sanitary conditions and consequently good balance and concentration of the grapes: 25 hl/ha for the Clos de garde and 40 hl/ha for the fruit wines.The vines are harvested by hand by a team of 40 cutters and pickers who go through the rows, selecting the most beautiful grapes.In the heart of the Loire Valley, its castles and its gentle way of life, Chinon and a large part of its vineyards are classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
