More Information
Loire Valley, France
The 600-mile stretch of the Loire River valley and its tributaries make up one of France's top wine regions. The wines include famous names such as Muscadet, Pouilly-Fumé, Vouvray, and Sancerre.
Best known for white wines, the most popular grape varieties are Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, and Melon de Bourgogne. Red wines are made with Cabernet Franc and Gamay. Some of the best examples come from Saumur Champigny.
Gamay is a thin, delicate purple-black skinned grape which is cylindrical and compact, surrounded by flat, fairly even-edged leaves.
Although granite soils seem to be its soil of choice, the variety is good at adapting. Half of the 30,000 hectares of Gamay planted worldwide are in the Beaujolais region of France, where it covers 98% of the areas that produce Beaujolais wine.
Charles‑Eusèbe Biotteau carries forward a proud family tradition in the heart of the Loire Valley, where vineyards have been tended for generations on the gentle slopes of Anjou. Working alongside his father, Pascal, Charles‑Eusèbe is passionate about expressing the unique character of their terroir.
Guided by sustainability and a deep respect for the land, Château d’Avrillé’s wines reflect both their heritage and a thoughtful vision for the future.
Grolleau is a traditional Loire Valley grape best known for its role in Rosé d'Anjou. It produces fresh, fruit-driven wines with bright red berry flavours, moderate alcohol and lively acidity.
Still widely grown around Anjou, Grolleau is valued for its easy-drinking character and ability to make approachable wines that emphasise freshness over weight.
