The Alliance Loire group comprises seven co-operatives, which joined forces in 2001
Alliance Loire began trading in January 2002, with the purpose of strengthening the position of each individual Cave by creating a company that could draw on the expertise of all its members

The group spans almost the entire length of the Loire, with appellations that include Muscadet, Saumur, Bourgueil, Vouvray & Chinon

Their brand, Vallée Loire, was developed in close collaboration with HwCg and was launched at the London International Wine & Spirit Fair in 2004
