Domaine Bobinet
In Saumur-Champigny, Domaine Bobinet is managed by Émilie Bobinet and Sébastien Bobinet. The vineyard is situated between hillsides and the banks of the Loire, on predominantly limestone soils, covered with varying depths of clay and silt, particularly well-suited for Cabernet Franc.
