Just as every season has its own wardrobe, so every parcel has its wine.
At our domaine whites take pride of place. Today we have two Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Goulaine, nine Muscadet Sèvre et Maine and one Gros Plant du Pays Nantais.
Each one carries the characteristics of its vineyard and the vintage from which it came.
The qualities of great terroirs are unchanging provided that the work through the seasons from pruning in the winter, through the tasks of the spring and summer, then manual harvesting, fermentation in undergound tanks or barrels or wooden vats with aging from 6 to 42 months on the fine lees is done with care, love and questioning.
