In the quaint commune of Cour-Cheverny lies Domaine Daridan, a family estate with a winemaking heritage spanning seven generations. Since 2001, Benoît Daridan has led the domaine with passion and precision, drawing on the knowledge of his ancestors as well as a wealth of experience gained throughout France and abroad.
At Domaine Daridan, great care is taken in the vineyard, with a strong commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship with the estate proudly holding the HEV (High Environmental Value) certification. Its unique clay-siliceous and limestone soils contribute to the distinct character and minerality of the wines. A true gem of the domaine is a 4.5-hectare plot planted with Romorantin, a rare and historic grape variety, these 50-year-old vines yield wines of remarkable finesse and aromatic complexity. In addition to Romorantin, the estate produces an elegant range of mineral-driven white wines from Sauvignon Blanc which are central to their range, as well as Pinot Noir and Gamay.
By combining modern technology with traditional winemaking techniques, Domaine Daridan proudly craft wines that are not only environmentally responsible but also express the authenticity and typicity of their Loire Valley terroir.
