Domaine des Hauts Baigneux

Philippe Mesnier and I, Nicolas Grosbois, took over this operation in 2012. We work on the terroirs of Azay le Rideau, Cheillé, Saché and Vallère.

The surface area of the estate is about 11 ha. It is distributed as follows: 9 ha on a clayey-limestone soil and the remaining 2 ha are in the commune of Saché, under the workshop Calder, on a magnificent flint clay soil planted with white Chenin.

We produce the two colours authorised by the Touraine Azay le Rideau appellation, i. e. white and rosé. We also produce red wines in the Touraine appellation on these same terroirs. Finally, we produce natural sparkling wine in white and rosé.

Our story

Nicolas Grosbois, is a child of Indre et Loire. He grew up in Bréhémont on the banks of the Loire and has a particular affection for this part of Touraine. The hazards of life have made the young winegrower see the potential of these vines develop from year to year. The domain of Les Hauts Baigneux was born. He shares the estate with his partner and friend Philippe Mesnier.
