Domaines viticoles Huismes

Philippe Richard set up in 1991 with only one hectare of vines and a great passion. He now farms 7.5 hectares on the heights of Huismes, Chinon and Beaumont-en-Véron. In the background: the respect of the soil and the tradition, the maintenance of the balance of the life of the soils and the idea that one can only make good wine with good grapes. Active member of the "Bons Entonneurs Rabelaisiens" brotherhood, attached to tolerance and conviviality, he welcomes you in his cellar with galleries dug by hand in the tufa stone by his ancestors.

Matthieu and Vincent Bellivier, both artisanal winegrowers, did not come from rural areas or the wine industry. But it was a matter of passion! Vincent founded his business in 1983, and his wife Dominique, alias Noune, the nickname that inspired the names of the vintages, joined him in 1988. When he finished his wine studies in 2008, their son Matthieu joined the business. The beginning of a saga of winemakers from father to son! The estate has 6 ha of vines, 4 types of terroirs and a small collection of nice wines. And a truffle farm!
