About the producer
Domaine Bruno Préveaux was established in 1990 on the left bank of the Vienne river in La Roche Clermault. The latter is a village dear to Rabelais, which was the scene of one of the most famous battles of the Picrocholine wars.
The vineyard spans 13 hectares. After 25 years of harvesting on grassy soil, Bruno Preveaux started working the earth again, 1 row out of 2 or even 1 row out of 4, for the last three years. These fully tilled plots allow for better production while respecting the environment.
Bruno Preveaux's wines perfectly reflect Bruno himself - big, bold and friendly. His dedication to his craft consistently yields boisterous, accessible wines that belong both on the dinner table and the rugby field. Produced in the gently rolling hills of La Roche-Clermault south of the Vienne, the heartier sand and clay soils impart a fuller texture with slightly more grippy tannins that will pair perfectly with roast duck and still stand up to steak & chips.
