JEAN PIERRE BOISTARD

Jean-Pierre Boistard is a traditional wine producer in the Loire Valley of France, best known for wines from the Vouvray appellation — an area famous for expressive Chenin Blanc wines that can range from dry to off-dry, sweet and even sparkling styles. 

Based in Vernou-sur-Brenne overlooking the Loire River, Jean-Pierre Boistard owns vineyards and deep tuffeau cellars on the premières côtes (slopes) of Vouvray. His estate historically produced a variety of Vouvray styles — including sec (dry) wines, moelleux (slightly sweet) wines, and pétillant/demi-sec sparkling cuvées — often showing classic Chenin Blanc traits of ripe fruit balanced by bright acidity and minerality. 

Bottlings under the Jean-Pierre Boistard name appear from older vintages like Vouvray Tendre 2001 and Vouvray Moelleux 2002, which are occasionally available through specialist wine merchants and collectors. 

In short, Jean-Pierre Boistard refers to a classic Loire Valley Vouvray producer, representing traditional vineyard-focused winemaking in one of France’s most historic Chenin Blanc regions.
