Presentation
Domaine de la Furonnière is a family winery, located just east of Nantes. Passing down techniques from grandfather, to father, to son, and now led by vigneron Daniel Bonneau, the estate works each vintage to bring out the taste of the Loire in every sip, producing the purest expression of the terroir. Located about 15 km from the Loire river and because it so close to the ocean, the vineyards (30 hectares, average age of 50 years old) benefit from a unique cooling microclimate. The terroir is composed of fossilized shells (giving minerality in the wines), quartz and silex pebbles.
