CAVE ROBERT ET MARCEL
The cellar was founded in 1956 under the leadership of
forty growers and the first collective winemaking took
place in the autumn of the same year. The cooperative
covers 10 km of tunnels, dug into the heart of the
vineyard and today it tells a unique story of audacious
human enterprise. The guided visit takes in the great,
12th century, vaulted cellar and the deepest, bottling
chamber in Europe. All the appellation wines of Saumur
are available for tasting: Saumur Blanc, Rouge, Rosé,
Saumur-Champigny, Saumur Brut and Crémant de Loire.
