Ribera del Duero, in the heart of Arande de Duero is a project by wine lovers for wine lovers. The idea has always been and will always be to produce some of the best wines in Ribera del Duero at a reasonable enough price for all to enjoy. By following this method and through a well thought out and serious operation we have put our faith in the people who know the wines best - the winemakers.

They have designed our entire process, directing the cultivation of the vineyards, through to the maceration of the grapes. This concept has become the keystone for all our wines and the true life-blood of the project.

Bohórquez is the vintage, the climate and the time we invest taking care of the grapes and the one spent by the wine in the aging process in bottle. Our two wines are made of the finest Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes from our prime vineyards. Located on the Pesquera Plateau, at an altitude of 900 metres above sea level, the famed Valderramiro slope is home to the vines of Bohórquez. Limestone soils, cooling breezes and cool nights give us grapes and wine of exceptional quality.

The best grape is born in the best earth. It is the most balanced earth thanks to its texture and its structure. The climate is perfect here, with mild temperature during the day and cold nights. This land harbors a hundred-year-old vines that produce smooth and voluptuous wines, with fine aromas, an enticing, complex palate and strong colors that last long, just like the life of its vines.

It is crucial to know the soil. It is crucial to know the presence of its nutrients in a harmonic proportion, since these are essential factors for the crop development and also for the performance and efficiency of the grape ripeness. This grape, that will offer the best wine, feeds on light and earth, but it is the result of the work of man. That’s how Pablo Neruda described it and that’s how it is in La Rioja.

The centuries-old experience in the Toro region, along with the effort, dedication and good work of Frutos Villar has been rewarded with the fidelity of the winemakers of the area who hold the highest quality vineyards that, together with their own 99 hectares, contribute the raw material needed to produce the best of this land.

With barren terrain that retains the heat and a more southern and sunny vineyard, it has warm red wines with a great tannin and color, with a very tasty palate, is perhaps the oldest red wine area in Spain.

In 1992, two years after their wedding, Sophie and Laurent Poitevin decided to take over the destiny of Château Grand Bert and Château Grand Tuillac. The two properties were handed-down from Sophie's parents and Laurent's parents in law, Philippe and Françoise Lavigne. Along with the properties, knowledge was also handed-down. Philippe Lavigne passed on all his know-how to Sophie and Laurent to uphold the family expertise. Over the course of the last 27 years Sophie and Laurent have kept on perfecting the wine fabrication and the management of the family business.

Both are driven by passion and a willingness to transmit this great tool to their children Thomas and Pierre, just like their parents did before them. Thomas, 27 years old, joined the family operation three years ago as head of culture and cellar master. Pierre, 24, just joined the adventure as commercial director. The two of them make the 7th generation of winegrowers of the two properties and plan to add their own touch whilst making sure to keep a friendly, elegant and quality-driven atmosphere that characterises Château Grand Bert and Château Grand Tuillac so well.

The vineyard is entirely surrounded by glorious oak trees and woodlands providing natural buff ers and thereby protecting the vineyard and reinforcing the necessary organic processes. The topsoil is composed of fine clays mixed with large stone pebbles shaped over time with quartz molds, quartzites and lydiennes dating back to the quarternaire era. This ensures optimal drainage as the grapes bask in the sun, retaining the heat well into the cool evening. Irrigation occurs naturally and comes from a network of natural water sources dissimulated across the vineyard. These are optimal conditions for these powerful wines.

Domaine des Pentelines

At the crossroads of Berry, Touraine and Sologne, the vineyard extends over 34 hectares in 3 PDO: TOURAINE - TOURAINE CHENONCEAU - VALENCAY. The vines develop on former terraces of the Cher composed of two specific terroirs: lug clays and flint clays.

At the head of the estate since March 2020 and wishing to be part of continuity, Anne-Sophie and Benoit LAGARDE cultivate the vine with respect for the environment by being part of the Terra Vitis specifications.

The grapes are harvested to their optimum maturity and vinified with modern temperature control techniques. Our priority is to extract a maximum of fruit and just the necessary tannins for a beautiful structure... so that the wine remains a pleasure.

This is when in 2008, a partnership with Denis Gueury was formed, and the wine cellar and the olive oil mill Domaine Terre de Mistral was born. Today, thanks to the help of a dynamic team we are proud to distribute our wines to wine shops and renowned restaurants throughout France and in more than ten countries around the world.
