Chateau Thébaud

Location

The Château-Thébaud is produced near the river Maine :this river goes into the Loire.

Terroir

The granitic subsoil has many cracks, its name here is «granit of Château-Thébaud ». This is a filtering soil with the idealproportion of sand and clay. The roots grow down between therocks.

Winemaking

Our grapes are harvested manually then they arecarefully transported to the wine cellar. The pneumatic press is filledby gravity, so grapes are not crushed. The fermentation naturallytakes place in an underground vat, for about one month. After theageing begins. We practise « batonnage » (stirring of the lies). Thebatonnage gives a great aromatic complexity and gustatory richnessto this wine. The Château Thébaud passes 30 months on the leesbefore the bottling. This Cru has a great ageing potential.
