Domaine de L’Ermitage
Domaine de L’Ermitage
The Domaine de l’Ermitage, nestled in the heart of the Menetou-Salon, combines modernism and tradition, for the sake of quality, and for the passion of wine. Bernard Clement was one of the founders of the Menetou-Salon appellation in 1959. His daughter, Laurence de la Farge, and her husband, Geraud, continued a legacy in winemaking, and in 2003, the family established Domaine de l’Ermitage. Today, their children, Antoine and Sophie, continue to run the estate.
The Domaine covers approximately 30 acres of vines in the heart of the Menetou-Salon appellation, right next to Sancerre. 80% of the vineplants are Sauvignon Blanc and the remaining 20% are Pinot Noir. All the work is done by hand.
