Michel Chevrè began his career in the world of wine in 1992 when he began working as a cellar manager at the Domaine des Roches Neuves of the famous Thierry Germain.
Since 2007 he has owned a small plot of Chenin Blanc in Courchamps, under the Saumur AOC denomination. Since 2009 he has started making wine, using the Germain cellar, thus giving life to Clos de l’Ecotard.
The production of Chevrè wine is characterized by a non-interventionist idea in the vineyard and by the use of native yeasts in the cellar for a spontaneous alcoholic fermentation that takes place in the barrel.
