Francois Millet

Currently run by the fifth generation of wine makers, their story started way back in 1850 in a pretty little village called Bué......

Bernard and Pierre had already noticed the existence of noble soils and they set to work planting the famous grape varieties – Sauvignon and Pinot Noir. These soils and grape varieties have been recognised as an appellation (AOC) since 1936. As they both had fine palates, they always strived to improve the quality of their wines and were the first to follow the technological innovations of the last century. They also understood the painstaking effort, regular and special care involved in creating the subtlety of the terroir.  Thankfully, this patience, skill and common sense has been passed down from generation to generation so that today we can continue to enjoy their stunning, unforgettable wines.
