La Chevallerie
( XV Century spelling) is one of the oldest and richest vineyards
of Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil. The sand and gravel soil has
been devoted to the cultivation of wines for about eighteen
centuries.
The "Hotel de la Chevallerie",
as it was known, came into the possession of the Abbey of Saint-Pierre
de Bourgueil in the Middle Ages, and the renown of the wines
proucted at La Chevallerie was the resut of the labours of the
benedictine monks over the centuries.
