The Domaine d’Orfeuilles is a family-owned winery located in the prestigious Vouvray and Touraine regions, in the heart of the Loire Valley. Spanning 23 hectares, the estate benefits from diverse terroirs, primarily composed of siliceous and clay-limestone soils, which give the wines great finesse and a unique complexity. The vines are cultivated with respect for the environment, following organic farming principles, a commitment made since the early years of the estate and which continues to this day. The estate has been managed by the Herivault family since its founding in 1947 by Paul Herivault, and is currently run by Bernard Herivault and his son Arnaud, who continue the traditions in both vineyard work and wine production.
The wines of Domaine d’Orfeuilles are the result of meticulous work, blending respect for viticultural traditions with innovation. The estate offers a wide range of wines, from still Vouvray to sparkling Vouvray, as well as rarer cuvées, such as aged wines. Each wine is a true expression of the terroir, highlighting the purity, elegance, and richness of the grape varieties, mainly Chenin Blanc, typical of the region. The winemaking process is carried out with a constant focus on quality, favoring gentle methods and limiting interventions to preserve the natural character of the grape.
The Domaine d’Orfeuilles is also distinguished by its commitment to passing on its expertise and sharing the passion of its winemakers.
