About the Winery Sauvion
The Sauvion house, belonging to brothers Yves and Jean-Ernest, is located in the heart of the Nantes vineyard in Château du Cléray-Sauvion in Eolie; Eolie, land of the wind, relating thus to the ocean breeze, that comes to gently sweep through the vines. This château belonging to the Sauvion family since 1935 is, with its old vaulted cellars, one of the most ancient properties in the Sèvre et Maine vineyard. It spreads over 38 hectares (1 hectare Chardonnay, 1.8 hectare Gros-Plant and 35.2 hectares Muscadet Sèvre et Maine) with siliceous and clay soils, a terroir that is late to ripen, but offers a long ageing potential.
