When Romain Guiberteau and his right hand Brendan Stater-West do something new, we pay attention. Starting with the 2024 vintage, Romain, his daughter Camille and Brendan have launched a new project Chai de la Dive making wine from purchased fruit in and around Saumur farmed with the same ethos as their respective domaines.
The collaboration between Loire Valley vigneron Romain Guiberteau and the American ex-pat Brendan Stater-West has been a dynamic partnership for over a decade in the Saumur-Champigny area. Absolutely mesmerized by the incredible quality of the wines at Domaine Guiberteau, Brendan left Paris to take a job in the cellar with Romain in the early 2010s and hasn’t left since.
In 2015, Romain helped Brendan get his solo project off the ground, proposing that he start with a hectare of his own vineyard Les Chapaudaises. In the decade that Brendan’s label has been around, the wines have carved out a formidable reputation amongst many wine directors and sommeliers.
2024 marks another milestone with Chai de la Dive, their newest venture with Romain’s daughter Camille, looking to source fruit from high quality vineyards from neighbors. Chai de la Dive will also become the home for some earlier releases for the two winemakers.
