In 1890, Domaine des Forges was born. Mr Pierre Robineau, grocer and cloth merchant, decided to buy 2 hectares of vineyard. A parcel called “le Clos des Forges” gave its name to the domain. Since then, 5 generations of winegrowers have succeeded one another in the family, making the Domaine des Forges a historic and renowned house among the Loire Valley estates. For more than 20 years, Stéphane and Séverine Branchereau have been striving to perpetuate this heritage, between respect for tradition and innovation. With the 2019 vintage, Domaine des Forges achieved the highest HVE standard. This is a guarantee of more environmentally friendly approaches in the vineyard. The domain works on 3 indicators: biodiversity, phytosanitary strategy and fertilization management. They are currently using bacterisol, which fertilizes and restores soil balance with a positive impact on the environment and biodiversity. In addition they use a technique called “sexual confusion”. The principle is simple: they artificially provoke a release of pheromones in the vineyards. These pheromones, normally secreted by the female moths, will release hormones in large quantities, which will disturb the search for the female moths by the males. Thus without reproduction, the birth of larvae will not take place, which consequently will not cause any damage to the vines. Through the transmission of knowledge of the vine for 5 generations and concerned about ecological issues for future decades, obtaining this distinction is fundamental for the Domaine des Forges in terms of its commitment against soil pollution and global warming, a challenge of the 21st century.
