Stephane Bernaudeau

Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau wines: buy at the best price

Stéphane Bernaudeau is based in Cornu, in Anjou near Martigné-Briand, and produces very small quantities—just a few thousand bottles—of full-bodied wines that impress with their mineral texture on the palate. This artisan winemaker first worked with Mark Angeli before establishing his own estate in 2000. To allow him to devote himself entirely to his estate, Stéphane Bernaudeau recently acquired a new parcel, Les Onglés. It rounds out his Chenin range, which now comprises three white Loire wines classified as Vin de France (Onglés, Terres Blanches and Nourrissons), as Stéphane recently stopped producing his red Loire wine, Les Vrilles.

The TOP winemakers of Loire

Frequently Asked Questions

Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau has been based in Martigné-Briand, in Anjou’s Loire Valley, since 2000. Its vines grow across the varied terroirs of Anjou Noir and Anjou Blanc, on decomposed schist, sandy, gravelly and clay-limestone soils, along gentle slopes at elevations of 50 to 100 meters. A little-known Loire producer, it is nonetheless recognized by lovers of great Loire white wines.

The vines of Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau are predominantly trained in gobelet style without wire and worked by horse, following a biodynamic philosophy that respects natural cycles to deeply root the vines and extract the mineral quintessence of the soils. This artisanal and demanding viticulture is at the heart of the domaine's identity.

The rarity of Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau’s wines stems above all from its deliberately limited production. Its small output of around 6,000 bottles a year is in high demand, and the bottles are extremely hard to find because of the quality of its cuvées. Working alone on a 3.5-hectare estate necessarily means production remains small.

Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau works exclusively with Chenin Blanc, expressed through distinct single-parcel cuvées. Its low-intervention winemaking lets the terroir and Chenin Blanc grape express their full potential, without additives apart from a little sulfur used in very modest amounts. This minimalist approach allows each parcel to reveal its own aromatic and mineral signature.

Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau produces several single-vineyard cuvées made from Chenin Blanc. Les Nourrissons is the flagship cuvée, sourced from a plot of less than 1 hectare planted in 1910 on a clay-schist plateau. Les Onglés comes from a 2-hectare plot of thirty-year-old vines on schist and limestone, with a south-west orientation. A third cuvée, Les Coqueries, was born in 2019 and rounds out this exclusive range. These three wines are sought after by lovers of terroir-driven chenins with a strong personality.

The wines of Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau are wines for ageing that reward patience. Their true and imposing minerality overflows on the palate and gives a striking impression of chewiness; these are wines that require many years of waiting before they reveal their full potential. Les Nourrissons offers a sharp acidity that balances a generous richness, with notes of ripe yellow fruits refreshed by citrus zests. To fully appreciate them, it is recommended to serve them between 12 and 14°C in a large Burgundy glass, ideally alongside noble fish, shellfish or pressed-curd cheeses.

The Story of Stéphane Bernaudeau

Founded in 2000 by Stéphane Bernaudeau, this small-scale estate has its roots in the extensive training he received under Mark Angeli at Ferme de la Sansonnière, where he spent more than fifteen years as Angeli’s right-hand man. Born in Anjou, Stéphane grew up on the banks of the Layon, observing the local flora and fauna before turning to wine in the 1990s. Influenced by pioneers such as Jo Pithon, Richard Leroy and Eric Calcutt, he took over Calcutt’s legendary Les Nourrissons parcel in 2000, marking the start of his independent production. Although he continued working with Angeli until 2015, Stéphane settled permanently in Cornu, near Martigné-Briand, with his wife Isabelle and their family. Passionate about cycling and blind tastings, he favors a balanced life away from crowded wine fairs so he can devote himself fully to his vines. Today, his wines have a cult following and are produced in extremely limited quantities of just a few thousand bottles a year.

Terroirs and Vines of Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau

Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau spans a variety of terroirs in Anjou Noir and Anjou Blanc, influenced by a climate that is both continental and oceanic. Its gently sloping vineyards, at elevations of 50 to 100 meters, have decomposed schist, sandy, gravelly and clay-limestone soils. Most vines are trained as bush vines without trellis wires and worked with horses. They are farmed according to a practical biodynamic philosophy that respects natural cycles, encouraging deep roots and drawing out the soils’ mineral character. Key parcels include Les Nourrissons (0.7 ha of century-old Chenin on clay-schist soil on a southwest-facing plateau), Les Terres Blanches (0.45 ha of 80-year-old vines on pale limestone above the Layon), Les Onglés (2 ha of 30-year-old vines on schist and limestone with southwest exposure) and Les Coqueries (nearly 1 ha on schist slopes in Bonnezeaux, taken over in 2019). Protected from frost by an innovative mobile wind machine, these small parcels produce ripe, healthy grapes at low yields of around 25 hl/ha.

Winemaking at Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau

In a modest cellar adjoining his home, Stéphane Bernaudeau favors minimal-intervention winemaking to preserve the identity of each parcel. Grapes harvested by hand and rigorously sorted by a dedicated team are pressed in whole bunches using a vertical press, then settled in stainless steel tanks to balance the juices. Fermentation begins spontaneously in used 228-liter barrels or 15 hl Vicard large oak casks. Malolactic fermentation is not induced but occurs naturally. Aging on fine lees lasts 12 months without stirring or racking, followed by a modest addition of SO2 (about 30–40 mg/l total) to maintain youthful tension. The wines are neither filtered nor fined: they are bottled by hand between October and December and often labeled Vin de France to underscore their authenticity. Refined over the years, this approach turns the grapes into precise cuvées alive with mineral energy, ready to develop gracefully over four to five years or more.

The Cuvées of Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau

The cuvées of Domaine Stéphane Bernaudeau, all made from single-parcel Chenin Blanc, captivate with their individuality and depth.

Les Nourrissons: An emblematic cuvée from a tiny parcel of less than 1 ha, planted in 1910 on a south-southwest-facing clay-schist plateau. This crystalline Chenin offers sharp acidity that balances its generous richness, with notes of ripe yellow fruit refreshed by citrus zest. Powerful yet refined on the palate, it has a sustained minerality that extends the finish. A distinctive Loire wine, comparable to a Puligny-Montrachet from Anjou.

Les Onglés: From a 2 ha, southwest-facing parcel of 30-year-old vines on schist and limestone. This cuvée reveals delicate notes of white fruit, a pronounced mineral opening and pure, luscious fruit that adds complexity. Aged on its lees for 12 months in barrels, it expresses the terroir’s saline texture with intense freshness.

Les Terres Blanches: From 0.45 ha of vines more than 80 years old on white clay-limestone soils near the Layon. Refined and chalky, it reveals aromas of white peach, herbal infusion and pure minerality. The precise, elegant finish benefits from aeration to dispel any initial reductive notes, revealing a silky texture and remarkable longevity.

Les Coqueries: A newcomer since 2019, from nearly 1 ha of schist hillside terroir in Bonnezeaux, divided by the Layon. This bright, saline Chenin balances sun-ripened concentration with vivid flavors and exuberant power: the "Bâtard-Montrachet of Anjou". First vinified in 2019, it stands out for its precision and electric tension.

Stéphane Bernaudeau is a quietly passionate figure among the Loire’s great winemakers, renowned for his unwavering commitment to quality. Produced in extremely limited quantities, these cult cuvées, coveted by collectors, disappear quickly from the shelves. Treat yourself to the timeless elegance of these vibrant Chenins, faithful reflections of unique Loire terroirs, and join the circle of connoisseurs who know that true rarity lies in authenticity.
