Monsieur Brédif was a true pioneer among winemakers, creating sparkling Vouvray as early as the turn of the 20th century. In 1980, Baron Patrick de Ladoucette took over the helm as a passionate wine lover. Committed to quality and tradition, he breathed new life into this centuries-old house.

Tailored to its distinct terroirs, Maison Brédif vinifies three types of wines: the classic Vouvray; the Nectar, harvested late during exceptional vintage years; and Vigne Blanche, a prestigious dry white wine produced exclusively from the estate’s single vineyard of the same name. Maison Brédif also ages red wines from the prestigious Chinon, Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil, Bourgueil, and Saumur-Champigny appellations.

Carved into the tuffeau limestone since the 10th century, the estate’s troglodyte cellars are among the largest and most magnificent in the region. They house extremely rare wines, with vintages dating as far back as 1874.
