(49) Maine-et-Loire

Domaine FL is a family wine estate located in Rochefort sur Loire in Maine-et-Loire (49).
Our vineyard produces only organic wines whose vines are led according to the precepts of the biodynamy.
Our vineyard is located on the edge of the Loire Valley and includes the following appellations: Savennières, Roche aux moines, Anjou Blanc, Anjou Villages, Coteaux du Layon, Chaume 1er Cru and Quarts de Chaume Grand Cru.

The grapes are harvested manually with successive selections in order to obtain grapes of a very high quality.
No malolactic fermentation is carried out on the white wines, allowing the wine to keep a richness of expression and aromas during the tasting and a very important potential of keeping.

Composed mainly of metamorphic rocks, our subsoil, rich and diverse, allows the expression of a complex and aromatic wine.

It is possible to come to the Domaine FL to discover our universe, for a wine tasting, a visit of the vineyard or to discover the richness of these wines during a meal or a cooking workshop.

Our story

It all began in 2006 when Philip Fournier created his wine estate in the heart of Anjou: Domaine FL. He pays tribute to his parents by associating their names: Fournier and Longchamps.

In 2009, his son, Julien, took over the reins of the domain. Julien Fournier, supported by his team, was able to structure Domaine FL into an exceptional wine destination.

Our winemaking process is in perfect harmony with nature and its terroir. All our wines are labeled "organic agriculture", a quality label that recognizes the respect of biodiversity, the preservation of natural resources and the assurance of a high level of animal welfare.

Rigor, passion and respect for wine and terroirs are found in each of our vintages.

Other little stories

At Domaine FL, we are delighted to welcome every day wine lovers, amateurs as well as experts, but also explorers of our region, whether they are from the neighboring village or from the other side of the world!

One afternoon in May 2019 we had a nice surprise that remains one of the most recurrent anecdotes that we like to remember between colleagues! A family straight from California visited us, bringing their good mood, their humor and their simplicity and yet it was the Murray family, with dear Bill (los in translation, ghost busters, a day without end etc ....), and of course his brothers including Joel (series Mad men in particular).

But above all, although we were all more or less film buffs in the team, the idea of imagining this family stopping at our estate in Anjou seemed so unreal that for more than an hour we thought more that this impression of "déjà-vu" was due to a strong resemblance rather than that it was indeed the "real Murray"!

Of course, after a while, thanks to a colleague more perceptive than us, we finally realized what was going on.

We immortalized the moment with a photo, and since that day we know that anything is possible even in Rochefort sur Loire!
