2021 · Coteaux du Loir Rouge Cuvee du Rosier

Founded in 1991 by Pascal and Dominique Janvier, this family-run estate in the Loir Valley farms 66 rented parcels themselves across Jasnières. Their low-intervention “lutte raisonnée” approach emphasizes sustainable vineyard work, although no formal certification is mentioned. Pascal leads the winemaking, with Dominique contributing to estate decisions. The wines include Chenin Blanc, including a Jasnières cuvée from clay and limestone soils, and a Pineau d’Aunis-based red. The estate remains small-scale and owner-operated.
