Domaine de la Garrelière is a pioneering biodynamic estate in the Loire Valley's Southern Touraine, certified Biodyvin since 1995. Farming 20 hectares on silex, clay, and limestone soils, the Plouzeau family crafts low-intervention wines — including a mineral-driven Sauvignon Blanc and honest Chenin Blanc — that let terroir speak for itself. Available in Australia through Amor Fati.
