Domain

Domaine de Rocheville, established in Parnay since 2004 under the aegis of Philippe Porché, illustrates a rich and fascinating winegrowing history. The pivotal year of 2005 marked the beginning of its journey with the vinification of its very first vintage. Over the years, the estate has broadened its range of wines, producing such notable cuvées as Saumur Blanc, Saumur Champigny, Saumur Rosé, and even a Crémant de Loire. In 2011, Rocheville was awarded the Terra Vitis label, confirming its commitment to environmentally-friendly viticultural practices. In 2013, a contemporary winery was built, signalling the estate's growing momentum. 2019 marks a major turning point with the award of organic certification, crowning 15 years of eco-responsible winegrowing. Winner of the Grand Prix d'Or des Trophées de l'Œnotourisme in 2020, the estate is now open to wine tourism. Situated in the heart of the Saumur Champigny AOC, the estate enjoys a privileged geographical location, with exceptional clay-limestone terroirs. Domaine de Rocheville is committed to an eco-responsible approach, adopting viticultural practices that respect biodiversity. The winemaking process, which combines tradition and modernity, takes place in an eco-responsible cellar, attesting to the estate's commitment to sustainable development.
