The large variety of soils in the Loire Valley is characterised by diverse natural environments. This region can be sub-divided in four climates, from western coastal regions to inlands - Pays Nantais / Anjou-Saumur / Touraine / Central Vineyards. In Touraine, the basement is composed of tufa chalk, flint, and clays from the Paris Basin. The geological diversity continues on the banks of the Loire and Vienne, made up of sands and gravels rolled by the streams and deposited over time.

Domaine de Montcy is a beloved estate created in 2007 by Laura Semeria, originally from Liguria in Italy. Following her fall in love with the wine region of the Loire Valley Laura purchased this estate, renamed it and became a winegrower. Rapidly she converted the Domaine de Montcy into organic, and worked following the Biodynamic guidelines. Respect of the nature in the vineyards, use of indigenous yeasts in the cellar, and a very limited use of sulfur give to these wine a genuine personality.
