The estate and the wine |
|
|
Founded in 2011 by Michel Chevré, formerly vineyard manager for the renowned Thierry Germain, Clos de l’Ecotard has quickly become one of the undisputed benchmarks of the Loire Valley.
Today, Michel and his son Thibaud craft some of the purest and most dazzling wines of the region, farmed organically. These are true terroir-driven wines, raised with exceptional precision in barrels or amphorae.
Awarded 2 stars by La Revue du Vin de France — a leading French wine magazine — this top-tier estate continues to impress. Both their reds and whites shine with a magical purity, shaped with tact and balance. Every bottle is highly sought-after by passionate wine lovers. |

Sourced from a limestone-rich hillside, the 2022 Saumur Les Pentes White is a marvel of purity and salinity — one of the most thrilling whites you’ll encounter. The brilliant expression of Chenin Blanc and its chalky character stretch the wine out beautifully, laced with delicate hints of anise. Striking the perfect balance between concentration, mineral intensity, and finesse, this radiant white offers a modern, refined vision of the great whites of the Saumur region. In magnum format, both the pleasure and aging potential are amplified. |
