2022 Domaine de la Pierre Gravée Vouvray Inspirations

Winery Description

Since Roman times, the Vouvray landscape has been renowned for its troglodyte wine cellars, carved into the yellow limestone cliffs of the valleys.
With high humidity and a constant temperature of 12°C year-round, these cellars provide ideal natural conditions for creating, storing, and aging quality wines.

At the heart of Vouvray A.O.C, Domaine de la Pierre Gravée was established in 2021, dedicated to producing terroir-driven wines using environmentally sustainable methods. These practices include organic farming, handharvesting into small crates, reduced yields, and fermenting with native yeasts. In the cellar, after a gentle pressing, the juices are transferred into amphoraes or carefully selected barrels, with no external additives used during fermentation and maturation.

The wines spend between 18 and 24 months in the cellar, and after bottling, they rest for a minimum of 6 months before release.

4 cuvées have been produced for the 2022 vintage, 3 dry and one sparkling. Available in 2024 is “Inspirations”, 2 other dry wines will be
released mid 2025 and the sparkling one in 2026.

After 3 years of transition, Domaine de la Pierre Gravée will be certified “Organic Farming” in 2024
