On the hill of Puy Notre Dame, a majestic 11th century collegiate church dominates the vineyard; this is the highlight of the Saumur region. The Manoir de la Tête Rouge was built in 1649 at the foot of this hill, in the village but outside the walls. It was in 1995 that I acquired the property with 10 ha of vines, including the plot of l 'Enchentoir. The vines are planted on the best clay-limestone terroirs of the Saumur region. The first restoration to make it a dwelling house and a winery was completed in 1996 and I then bought 4 hectares. In 1998 the conversion to organic farming certified ECOCERT was imposed, the first “organic” vintage was made in 2001. The conversion to biodynamics, certified by BIODYVIN took place in 2010 and in 2013 I took over 4.8 hectares of Cabernet Franc already cultivated in biodynamics.
