In 1997, Yvonne and Jean-François Lamunière decided to revitalize an abandoned vineyard with the help of Françoise Foucault, widower of Jean-Louis "Charly" Foucault, co-owner of Clos Rougeard. In 2007, Matthieu Vallée took over and decided to keep the name Chateau Yvonne in homage to the incredible work done by the previous owners. One of the best expressions of Cabernet Franc grown in Saumur Champigny, showing freshness & great structure.
