Vignoble des Vernusses is a family-run estate in Saint-Pourçain, in France’s Loire Valley, with parcels in Monétay-sur-Allier and Bresnay. Founded by Claudine and Luc Tisserand around 2009–2010, the domaine is now operated by their daughter, Loren Tisserand. The appellation’s first organically certified domaine, it is farmed biodynamically on living soils of sand, clay, and granite, using year-round cover, no plowing, horse traction, and minimal chemical inputs. Winemaking is additive-free and low-intervention: the cuvées contain no added sulfur, with free SO₂ at bottling capped at 15 mg/L.
