Château Yvonne, located in the Saumur region, embodies a rich history and a strong identity in the heart of the Loire Valley. This wine estate, whose origins date back several centuries, has stood the test of time while preserving its authenticity and commitment to quality.
The history of Château Yvonne is marked by a succession of passionate owners who have helped shape its unique character. Over the years, the estate has evolved, passing from hand to hand, yet always maintaining its territorial roots and dedication to the winemaking tradition of Saumur. The acquisition of the estate by Jean-Pierre Robinot, an iconic figure in natural wine, marked a decisive turning point in the château's recent history. He breathed new life into the estate by converting the vineyard to organic farming and adopting biodynamic practices, with the goal of revealing the purest expression of the terroir.
Today, Château Yvonne is recognized for its wines of great finesse, crafted from grape varieties such as Chenin for the whites and Cabernet Franc for the reds. The various cuvées, some of which are single-parcel, bear witness to the diversity of the estate's soils and microclimates. Among the iconic wines are the Saumur-Champigny "La Folie," the Saumur Blanc "Le Gory," and the Saumur-Champigny "Le Beaumeray," which perfectly illustrate the expertise and passion that drive the team at Château Yvonne.
