Once home to nearly 20,000 hectares of vines, the region had lost 99 percent of its vineyards by 1970. Today, its remaining vines rise between 400 and 550 meters on the granite slopes of the Massif Central, where the native Gamay Saint Romain produces fresh, savory wines marked by red fruit, spice, and vibrant acidity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe family’s roots at Les Estinaudes date to the 17th century. Robert Sérol took over the small mixed farm in 1964 and bottled his first commercial wine in 1971. A tireless advocate for the region, he helped lead the campaign that earned Côte Roannaise AOC status in 1994.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHis son Stéphane joined the domaine in 1996 and now leads it with his wife, Carine. Together, they farm 38 hectares certified organic and biodynamic, preserving traditional high-density vineyards and Gamay Saint Romain through massal selection. Harvesting is entirely manual, fermentations rely on indigenous yeasts, and the wines are raised primarily in concrete, wood, and amphora with minimal intervention.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe heart of the Perdrizière vineyard, planted on weathered granite soil (gorrhe), rich in manganese and iron oxide. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dfe08fa elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eDuring the growing season, soil work is only done under the vines.
