Domaine de la Chevalerie has been in the Caslot family since the 17th century and have been specialists in Cabernet Franc for 13 generations. Their land covers 13 hectares in Bourgueil and were one of the early domaines in the region to shift their production to biodynamics. Through their careful farming, they offer a lens into the terroir of this classical region by vinifying and bottling each lieu-dit of separately.

The winery sits atop a tuffeau cave that spans over a hectare underground, and for generations they’ve made the effort to age bottles of each lieu-dit, sometimes for up to 100 years. It’s a massive study viticulture and elevage through one grape variety and the subtle variances of a single slope.

Certified organic since 2008 and biodynamic since 2012.
