The domaine of Marc Brédif is one of the most famous names in the Loire, renowned for the longevity and quality of his Vouvray. Established in 1893 under the name of Château les Roches it wasn’t until 1919 when Marc Brédif took over from his uncle, that the name was changed to mark the change of ownership. 

Marc Brédif is owned and operated by the Baron de Ladoucette. Grown on the lower slopes along the Loire Valley in Vouvray and Vernou-sur-Brenne, the grapes for the Marc Brédif Vouvray enjoy Northern/Southern exposure. The vineyards have soils of mainly chalk clay, with some parcels having flint clay soils. The vineyards are 25-30 years old on average.
