AOC Montlouis-sur-Loire

Located on the south bank of the Loire, opposite Vouvray, the Montlouis-sur-Loire appellation covers approximately 450 hectares and is dedicated to the production of white and sparkling wines made from the Chenin grape variety. The terroirs here consist of clay-limestone, siliceous, and sandy-silty soils, offering great diversity that allows the grape variety to fully express itself. Long overshadowed by its neighbor Vouvray, a few renowned winemakers, such as the Blot family from the Domaine de La Taille Aux Loups, have managed to reveal these magnificent lands and prove that they can produce some of the finest wines in the entire Loire Valley.
