Vegan wine in Loire Valley

Domaine des Baumard ★ 4.6

Savennieres / Coteaux du Layon / Quarts de Chaume · 8 rue de l'Abbaye, 49190 Rochefort-sur-Loire, France

Domaine des Baumard in Rochefort-sur-Loire works across Savennieres, Coteaux du Layon and Quarts de Chaume Grand Cru, and the estate publicly documents that its wines are produced without animal-derived fining agents (vegan winemaking). Florent Baumard's preference for cool fermentation and minimal cellar handling on his Chenin Blanc range supports the unfined-vegan approach.

Tip: Visits by appointment; the Quarts de Chaume Grand Cru and Clos de Saint-Yves Savennieres are the canonical wines to taste alongside the Coteaux du Layon Carte d'Or.
