VINEYARD WORK<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Following organic farming methods, mechanical weeding on the cavaillon (between the vines) and hoeing between the rows, more or less intense depending on the weather conditions. Fungicide treatments against mildew and powdery mildew are decided on the basis of our observations, weather conditions and alerts from the Chamber of Agriculture. Used at a minimum, these fungal products are combined with herbal teas (horsetail, nettles, etc.) to boost their effectiveness. The use of insecticides is forbidden on the estate, as are anti-rot products. We prefer leaf thinning to facilitate the aeration of the grapes and green harvesting to avoid compaction of the bunches.
\nBefore harvesting, the second generation bunches as well as all the bunches affected by rot, unripe or otherwise, will be eliminated manually.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

ELABORATION<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Harvesting (mechanical) often takes place at the beginning of the harvest period. Before vatting, the harvest is meticulously sorted. Fermentation is traditional, without yeast, in temperature-controlled vats over 8 to 10 days to preserve the fruit and lightness.
\nAged for 6 months in cement vats, lightly filtered.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n<\/span>In 1967, Guy and Anne-Marie Duveau<\/b><\/strong> began farming their land in a mixed farming system. In addition to a few acres of vines in Bourgueil<\/b><\/strong>, they grow asparagus, green beans, cereals and tobacco…
\n<\/span>From 1967 onwards, Guy and Anne-Marie<\/b><\/strong> were fully-fledged winegrowers, working the vines, making the wine, ageing it and marketing the wines they produced.
\n<\/span>From 1976 onwards, the area under vines began to increase to the detriment of other crops. This will continue to increase until it reaches 22 hectares in the Bourgueil<\/b><\/strong>, St Nicolas de Bourgueil<\/b><\/strong> and<\/strong> IGP<\/b><\/strong> appellations for the whites.
\n<\/strong><\/span>In 1995 Guy went into partnership with Dominique<\/b><\/strong> (his son) and founded the Gaec Duveau Coulon fils. They chose “Domaine du Rochouard<\/b><\/strong>” as their name; the name of the emblematic and historic parcel of the house located near Bourgueil Abbey, the cradle of winegrowing in the Bourgueil area.
It was in 1995 that the notion of plot selection<\/b><\/strong> was evoked at the estate; from there, the cuv\u00e9es \u201cPierre du Lane\u201d in St Nicolas de Bourgueil and \u201cLe Coteau\u201d in Bourgueil were born and a few years later \u201cArgiles \u00e0 Silex\u201d a cuv\u00e9e of old vines on the clays of St Nicolas.
\n<\/span>Dominique is moving more and more towards integrated farming<\/b><\/strong> (fewer pesticides, no more insecticides and a sharp reduction in the use of chemical weedkillers).
\n<\/span>Since 2007, Guy has handed over to Jean-Luc<\/b><\/strong> (due to retirement). Together with Dominique (his brother), they brought the estate into the world of Organic Farming<\/b><\/strong> (stopping chemical weeding in 2010), starting the AB conversion in 2012 and, after three years, obtaining the AB label
\n<\/b><\/strong> in 2015.<\/span>In 2010, a first \u201catypical\u201d cuv\u00e9e was born, an integral \u201cR\u201d cuv\u00e9e, followed 5 years later by a natural cuv\u00e9e \u201cLes Onze Boissel\u00e9es\u201d
\n<\/strong><\/span>Attracted by the production of white wine, we were able to plant a plot of <\/strong>Chenin<\/b><\/strong> (emblematic grape variety of the <\/strong>Loire Valley<\/b><\/strong>) in the spring of 2019, which will start production in 2021.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7013,"template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[345,343,344,333],"product_tag":[362,352,417],"class_list":{"0":"post-7709","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-organic-wines","7":"product_cat-red-wines","8":"product_cat-touraine-en","9":"product_cat-wines","10":"product_tag-meat","11":"product_tag-wine","12":"product_tag-winters","13":"product_shipping_class-bottle","15":"first","16":"instock","17":"featured","18":"taxable","19":"shipping-taxable","20":"purchasable","21":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"\nBOURGUEIL DPO ROUGE DOMAINE DU ROCHOUARD - Loire Gourmande - a tasty stage<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"BOURGUEIL AOP ROUGE DOMAINE DU ROCHOUARD.
