Provenance & Masters Behind the Bottle

Founded in the late 18th century, Domaine de Ladoucette has always been family-run, keeping the winemaking tradition alive across generations. Currently owned by Baron Patrick de Ladoucette, the estate's winemaking techniques resonate deeply with its heritage. Patrick has defied conventional winemaking by refusing to seek mass-market appeal, focusing instead on a meticulous, limited-production approach that commands attention from collectors.

Vineyard & Craftsmanship

Located in the Loire Valley, the estate capitalizes on a blend of terroirs, including limestone and flint soils, to create wines with mineral-rich complexity. Old vines, some over 35 years of age, contribute to the concentrated flavors, making each bottle a lesson in patience and craft. The meticulous selection of Sauvignon Blanc grapes creates a distinct aromatic profile characterized by notes of flint, smoke, and green apple.

Aging & Investment Value

While these wines show remarkable freshness and vivacity in their youth, they age gracefully, gathering nuanced complexity over 5-10 years. This aging potential positions them as a prudent investment for those looking to build a collection that appreciates in both flavor and financial value.
