Parnay, not far from Saumur, 1983 harvest. Éric Charruau learns in the footsteps of his father Jean-Pierre. Here, the vineyards are family history : their research will take them at the beginning of the farming business, back ten generations, in 1722. Eric takes care of 30 hectares around Parnay, that he farms organically. The wines are made the most natural way possible, to reflect the complexity of the Saumur terroirs. Since 2021, he is joined by his son Léo, to continue the adventure.
