Domaine Blouin

A Legacy of Winemaking for Over 150 Years

Domaine Blouin has a rich history that began 150 years ago with just 4 hectares of land. Today, this family-owned winery spans 25 hectares, producing around 60,000 bottles of red, white, rosé, and sweet wines each year. Located in Saint Aubin de Luigné, southwest of Angers in the Loire Valley, the winery combines tradition with modern techniques. During harvest, the team handpicks grapes for red and sparkling wines, carefully sorts sweet wine grapes, and utilizes machines for white grape harvesting.

Grape Varieties at Domaine Blouin

The winery produces a variety of wines under the Anjou and Anjou Villages appellations, as well as rosés from the Cabernet d’Anjou and Rosé de Loire appellations. The primary grape varieties include Grolleau, Gamay, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. These grapes contribute to the wines' delightful berry and floral aromas, complemented by a crisp, refreshing palate.

The Art of Vinification at Domaine Blouin

Domaine Blouin crafts a 100% Chenin Blanc sparkling wine under the Crémant de Loire appellation, sourced from slate-clay soils. The winery also specializes in sweet white wines from four distinct appellations: Coteaux de Layon, Coteaux de Layon Saint-Aubin, Coteaux de Layon Beaulieu, and Coteaux de Layon Premier Cru Chaume. Only over-ripened Chenin Blanc grapes are used, which undergo meticulous sorting—up to four times—before individual processing and blending. This commitment to quality has earned Domaine Blouin accolades in prestigious competitions such as the Ligers, Independents Vignerons, and Mâcon.
