Thomas Puéchavy

Thomas Puéchavy is a talented French winemaker working in the Vouvray appellation of the Loire Valley. However, he is not allowed to class his wines as Vouvray because whilst his vineyards are located in the right place, his cellar is a few hundred metres outside the appellation zone. He doesn't mind, and favours the freedom of Vin de France anyway ;)

Producing just 8000 bottles over 3 hectares featuring Limestone rather than clay, the dominate grape he grows is of course Chenin Blanc, and he is very good at it! He makes wines both dry and off-dry (Demi Sec) as well as Pet Nats too!
