The Story

For eight generations, the Gambier family has perpetuated its winegrowing expertise on a 17-hectare estate in Ingrandes de Touraine, in the heart of the Bourgueil appellation. Today, Thomas and Denis Gambier manage this vineyard with passion, producing red wines from their different terroirs, as well as a rosé highlighting the finesse of the Cabernet Franc grape variety. Gravelly soils favor rapid ripening, giving rise to fruity, round red wines and a delicate rosé. On the hillsides, the clay and limestone soils enable slow, concentrated ripening, resulting in powerful, complex reds. These wines are carefully matured in barrels in tuffeau cellars, offering optimal conditions for revealing their full character..
