La Grange Tiphaine
After studying oenology and viticulture in Bordeaux and internships in California and South Africa, Damien Delecheneau took over the domain in 2002, and since then the good man has not looked back. Winemaking is in the blood of the Delecheneaus: Damien is the fourth generation to touch the vineyards in Montlouis-sur-Loire, Touraine & Touraine-Amboise. Together with his wife Coralie, he has created a true living biological, balanced ecosystem from their 13 hectares of vineyards, including sheep, geese and ducks. The couple has become one of the most respected voices of the Loire. They have also cracked the code when it comes to sustainability. Each wine is the purest expression of the terroir, without faults, pure, balanced and with the greatest respect for nature and the environment. These talented winemakers know how to combine depth and subtlety. It is not without reason that they are a big favorite on the sommelier scene. Awarded ** in Revue du Vin de France 2023.
