Château de La Chaize is a wine-producing estate that covers a surface area of over 450 hectares (1,112 acres), including 150 hectares (370.65 acres) of vineyards.

This unique configuration offers an oasis of greenery with an ecosystem that allows us to implement an approach to viticulture that promotes soil life, plant diversity of and sustains animal species. Each aspect contributes to the balance and wealth of this ecosystem. The forests and meadows that surround the estate form a natural barrier that protects the vines and allows us to manage the biotopes to best express the quintessence of the vineyards. 

In our vision of ecology, which goes far beyond plot-based organic viticulture, we take into account soil life and the milieu’s biodiversity, as well as water management and carbon sequestration. We have therefore created small catch basins and a natural water treatment area, planted with reeds. The recycled water is used for watering the 7,000 trees and shrubs that have already been planted. Our objective is to have 50,000 planted over the estate’s 450 hectares (1,112 acres).

"Very well structured, yet restrained and elegant with a cool and delicate personality for the warm vintage, this is a really striking Fleurie. I love the interplay of sour cherry fruit with fine tannins on the concentrated, yet sleek and focused palate. Slowly expands in the glass as it aerates. Very long, seriously elegant finish."-James Suckling
