Domaine Thomas Frissant
Information
- Description
- Established in 2019 on 14 hectares of vineyards undergoing organic conversion, I now farm 12 hectares certified organic on the first hillsides of the village of Mosnes (10km of Amboise). The soils are composed of clay and flint, from which I have developed the following wine ranges:
Les Tout en Canon, easy-drinking “thirst-quenching” wines (Chardonnay, Grolleau and Gamay).
Les Lieux-dits, single-parcel selections (Sauvignon, Chenin, Côt).
Les Terroirs, cuvées produced from my finest plots (Gamay, Chenin, Côt).
The estate is located within the Touraine and Touraine Amboise appellations, and I also produce Vins de France.
Under the Touraine AOC, you will find a Sauvignon Blanc whose terroir gives it fine minerality and vibrant tension. In red, there are two Gamay wines (one easy-drinking and one more gastronomic) as well as a blended Côt/Cabernet cuvée from the Clos du Sentier terroir.
Under the Touraine Amboise AOC, the white wines are made from Chenin Blanc, offering a balance of delicacy and complexity. The red wines are made from Côt, which can be either complex and age-worthy or fruit-forward, depending on the cuvée.
My Vins de France include a Chardonnay-based white wine focused on fruit expression. You will also find two Grolleau cuvées: one still rosé and one pétillant naturel.
Before settling here, I gained experience in several wine regions around the world—from Burgundy to New Zealand, as well as the Northern Rhône Valley, Clare Valley in Australia, and Bandol. These journeys allowed me to exchange with other wine enthusiasts and strengthened my commitment to this profession. Following these experiences, and thanks to the people I met along the way, my desire to create my own wines—guided by my own viticultural and winemaking philosophy—gradually took shape.
