About the Winery
Domaine La Bonnelière exemplifies the dedication of organic winemaking in the Loire Valley. This spanning 37 hectares property, helmed by Cédric & Anthony Bonneau, focuses on careful soil cultivation and the vibrant purity of the fruit. Careful vinification and patient maturation take place in spectacular troglodyte cellars carved deep into limestone bedrock, creating an ideal setting to elevate Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc across Saumur, Saumur Champigny. Tastings at the cellar door offer a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, ideal for sharing a genuine moment with the winemakers and discovering the diverse portfolio of the estate.
