marc bredif

The Domaine Marc Bredif winery is located in the Loire Valley, France, and is well known for producing exceptional Loire white and red wines. The estate was established in 1893 and was originally called Château les Roches. In 1919, Marc Bredif took over from his uncle and changed the name to mark new ownership.

The reputation of the Domaine grew quickly, both at home and abroad. This was largely down to its sparkling Vouvray, rumoured to be some of the best in the region. He built an extraordinary circular storage room in the heart of its cellars during the 1930’s, which now keeps venerable vintages of sweet Vouvray, going all the way back to the 1900’s! The Chenin Blanc remains a benchmark for the region and when young it morphs into an infinitely complex wine with age taking on characters of dried honey, lanolin and valvados, still with that ceramic-like sheen of minerally acidity.
