Loire, Domaine de l'Ours Bleu, Les Champs Picard, AOC Saumur, Rouge
Domaine de l'Ours Bleu was taken over by two friends in 2013 : they converted the 14 ha of vineyards to organic farming, and patiently waited 2021 to release their first wines. Their philosophy is to produce fully mature wines, after at least 24 months of ageing in differents vessels (amphora, barrels, tanks). Saumur, Saumur-Champigny and Chinon are represented in their range.
Presentation
Today, Domaine de l'Ours Bleu represents a vineyard area of 14ha, managed by Jérôme Baillargeau using organic farming methods (100% of the estate by 2021). The vineyards are located around the head office (Montsoreau) in the Maine et Loire communes of Montsoreau (Saumur Champigny), Fontevraud and Brézé (Saumur), and in the Indre et Loire communes of Savigny en Véron and Avoine (Chinon). This geographical location enables us to produce wines from the Saumur (7.5ha), Saumur Champigny (2.5ha) and Chinon (4ha) appellations. Two grape varieties are currently planted: Chenin (white grapes) and Cabernet Franc (black grapes).
