The estate and the wine |
|
|
A favorite of our Selection Committee and awarded two stars in the RVF Guide (Revue du Vin de France), Château de Villeneuve is one of the Loire Valley’s finest estates. Spanning 25 hectares, Jean-Pierre Chevallier crafts exceptional organic wines with an intuitive approach, capturing the essence of the region’s limestone slopes.
These warm soils restore Saumur-Champigny to its former glory, producing fresh, vibrant wines full of charm—a truly sensual expression of Cabernet Franc. The estate also shines with its whites, showcasing the elegance and depth of fully matured Chenin Blanc.
Year after year, Château de Villeneuve stands out as one of the top estates in Saumur, with Jean-Pierre Chevallier earning a spot among our top 10 Loire Valley winemakers. |

Bright and refreshing, this well-crafted wine is ideal as an aperitif and pairs beautifully with dry cheeses, raw fish, or sardine rillettes. A perfectly executed wine at an unbeatable price. |
