At Château de Fontaine Audon in Sancerre, Langlois-Chateau continues to work the soils while carefully following social distancing rules in order to protect the team working the vines. Bud break is just beginning at the vineyards, with an imminent risk of frost in the coming days (temperature around 25°F). Everyone is keeping their fingers crossed and hoping for the best!
In the meantime, school cancellations and shelter-in-place mandates in France are no excuse not to continue childhood education at home. In this video, Laurent’s brilliant initiative (and English teaching skills) are put to the test!

Loire Valley, France
Langlois owns and manages 175 acres of the best AOC vineyards in the Loire Valley. Their Crémants are produced with standards far beyond the appellation requirements and even beyond Champagne AOC standards. They have an intensely terroir-focused approach of drawing the best characteristics from six distinct vineyards areas and soil types. The result is Méthode Champenoise wines of incredible finesse, further elevated by the expertise of the Bollinger Groupe, who acquired the estate in 1973 (their very first investment outside of Champagne).
