About the Winery

The Gautier family has been present on this estate for seven generations, with cellars dating from the 14th century and a 19th-century chai. Jean-Michel Gautier manages 17 hectares producing wines in the Vouvray appellation, including the famous Clos la Lanterne overlooking the Loire River. The estate produces classic Vouvray wines from Chenin Blanc: dry, demi-sec, and moelleux (sweet) wines, as well as sparkling wines. The wines are known for their exceptional aging potential and expression of the tuffeau limestone terroir.
