Approximately 28 hectares of vines is divided into three sites.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Around the Ch\u00e2teau, 22 hectares are located on a south-facing hillside shale and sheltered from the north winds. Among our vines, Chenin represents the majority and is expressed alone and without blending through our Anjou White and of course the Coteaux du Layon. For our Anjou Reds and Anjou Villages, Cabernet Franc is grown on the hillsides. The very local and amazing Grolleau brings fruity roundness to our ros\u00e9s and forms part of our Rouge Carmen blend where Gamay also surprises with its crispness and freshness.<\/p>\n
