Domaine Arnaud Lambert in Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg, Brézé and Montsoreau
Domaine Arnaud Lambert is a young estate. Wishing to change his life, Arnaud Lambert’s father took over the estate in 1996. It was a way of returning to the land of his birth, in Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg, in the heart of the Saumur – Champigny vineyards. Arnaud joined him in 2005, before taking over from him.
The Arnaud Lambert estate covers the communes of Brézé, Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg and Montsoreau. It covers 45 hectares. Based on two grape varieties, it produces 6 whites and 6 reds, as well as 3 Crémants de Loire. The vines at Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg and Brézé produce mainly white wine, while the vines at Montsoreau are dedicated to red wine.
Biodynamic Saumur wines
The estate has been organically farmed since 2009. In 2018, it will switch to biodynamic farming. Arnaud Lambert is particularly interested in his terroir and its micro and macrocosms.
