Description / Reviews
"Renowned for his Vouvray wines, but also for his sweet wines, Monsieur Brédif was a pioneer in the world of winemaking, creating sparkling Vouvray at the beginning of the 20th century. In 1980, Baron Patrick de Ladoucette, a true wine enthusiast, took up the mantle. Passionate about quality and tradition, he breathed new life into this centuries-old estate. Its troglodyte cellars, carved into the tuffeau limestone starting in the 10th century, are among the most beautiful and largest in the appellation. They house very rare wines, some dating back to 1874." - Marc Bredif, Winemaker
"The domaine of Marc Bredif is one of the most famous names in the Loire, renowned for the longevity and quality of his Vouvray. Established in 1893 under the name of Château les Roches it wasn't until 1919 when Marc Bredif took over from his uncle, that the name was changed to mark the change of ownership. The ethereal Chenin Blanc from Marc Bredif remains a benchmark for the region; delicious, nervy and vividly sketched when young it morphs into an infinitely complex wine with age taking on characters of dried honey, lanolin and calvados, still with that ceramic-like sheen of minerally acidity." - Negociants, Importer
