About Domaine Les Chesnaies - Beatrice & Pascal Lambert

The winery was founded in 1987, and is situated near the town of Chinon, at the locality known as «Les Chesnaies ». We cultivate cabernet franc (for all reds and rosés) and chenin blanc (for whites) on approximately 16 hectares of vines situated between Chinon and the village of Cravant-les-coteaux. The winery has been practising organic farming for over 20 years, and was certified Biodynamique (Biodyvin) in 2012. No chemical synthesis products are used to produce our wines. These natural methods practiced on the vines and in the cellar, accentuate the pureness of our terroirs and allow us to elaborate wines with personality.
