CHÂTEAU DU COING VISITS
Castle at the confluence of the Sèvre and Maine rivers, an example of the Italianate style of the 19th century, known as Clissonais, which became a wine château
Historically, the Château du Coing takes its name from its location "at the corner" of two rivers, at the confluence of the Sèvre and the Maine. Its first written mention dates back to 1536 and already mentions the existence of vines in the vicinity. The courtyard of the outbuildings with its majestic dovecote is a fine example of the Italianate style of the 19th century, known as "Clissonais". Today, this estate is a wine château managed by Véronique Günther-Chéreau and her daughter Aurore, an oenologist. Passionate, they are among the rare women managers of the Nantes vineyard. Fruity and floral, the Muscadets Sèvre et Maine sur Lie produced at the estate are terroir wines with an ageing capacity of 15 to 20 years for the crus communaux and the vintage vintages Comte de Saint Hubert. The ideal place for a visit followed by a tasting in a prestigious setting.
