The Bruneau-Dupuy field is a long history of family which started since several generations with Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil.

Today, it is Sylvain who has taken over of his Jean father and his Nicole mother for now 3 years.

The exploitation extends on a surface from 16 hectares protected in north by the forest. Here, the nature of the grounds has a considerable influence on the quality of the wine.

Indeed, two thirds of our exploitation located on the southern slopes full, are covered with old vines planted in grounds argilo-limestone covering the tuffeau. The wines resulting from these vines are vigorous and long in mouth; they develop red a fruit flavour more or less pronounced according to years'. The other third of the vines is planted in sandy grounds; what gives lighter wines fruity, to consume young people.

 

The cellars dug in the tuffeau offant a constant temperature de12 ° allows the breeding of the wines with a passage was of approximately 6 months.

This one makes it possible to remove acidity with the wine without giving tannin.
