VGC - VIGNOBLES GÜNTHER-CHÉREAU

Who are we

We are a family Estate, Véronique and Aurore, mother and daughter The Queens of Muscadet run their Estate with passion and love. Our 75ha vineyards are in the heart of the appellation f Muscadet Sèvre et Maine. 28ha of our vines are cultivated organically since 2010, the rest is in organic conversion and already cultivated following HVE3. We don’t make a Muscadet, but many Muscadets: we work by parcel selection, to show the minerality of our beautiful different terroirs. We work also on the date of harvesting and on the maturation on lees. It is the combination of these three elements which give us the possibility of a wide range of wines. The vinification, from the juice to the wine, is made in traditional underground tanks where our wines ages on their lees. We produce four Villages Crus: Monnières Saint Fiacre, Château Thébaud, La Haye Fouassière et Gorges. These high level Muscadets stay on their lees from 24 months up to 5 years. We produce also Chardonnay and Folle Blanche. Our wines are regularly awarded in the wine guides: Hachette, Jancis Robinson, Robert Parker, Wine Spectator. We work in export market since 20years (65% CA) and we like fair and long partnership.
