Chenin blanc

Damien and Coralie Delecheneau are revolutionizing winemaking at Domaine La Grange Tiphaine, an estate that began as a family farm in the 1850s and is home to the Delecheneau family since five generations. Their Treble Clef wines are a nod to their musical approach to winemaking.

Meet the Winemaker

Damien and Coralie met in Bordeaux while studying oenology. Their studies took them to Napa Valley and South Africa, before Damien returned to the family's Touraine estate in Amboise in 2002. Together, they have converted their vineyard to biodynamics.

In the Vineyard & Cellar

Coralie and Damien are passionate about wine and biodynamics. They grow myriad varieties of grapes on different soils, including Sauvignon Blanc, Côt (Malbec), Gamay, Cabernet Franc, as well as some Grolleau and Pinot d’Aunis. Above all, they are Chenin Blanc specialists. They cultivate their favorite variety with great care, creating wines with precision and style. They are low interventionist and limit the use of sulfites. Their values: observation, humility, precision and rigor.
