Jacques Brochet is a caring character who welcomes us with all the hospitality you can expect. His battle horse? Manual harvesting: he is holding, and against the current, one of the few wine growers in the region is to proceed in this way. Indeed, whether it be for chardonnay or Sauvignon (simple and successful vintages each year), sorting is important and depends on the quality of the wines. What matters to him is that we must rediscover in wine the taste of the cluster, which is yes, but not sufficiently stressed in general. His red anjous bear witness to the aromas of red fruit, which is still in the traditional méthode of lattes, produced in traditional methods, offering no acidity but restoring the freshness of the fruit. Its old vines produced each year is a nectar for the palate, aged 13 months in oak barrel, with roasted aromas, which fill your mouth. The coteaux poil poil comes from plots nestled on the heights of Maligné, a lovely village located near Martigné-Briand.

From Martigné, take the road on the right along the gendarmerie towards Faveraye-Machelles, pass the Dit Dit and continue until the castle rises to your right in the village of Walnut. The majestic medieval building is surrounded by moat and defensive towers and also has an old fortified farmhouse. All the production of the castle, now derived from organic farming, is usually beautiful. The white anjous are pampered (in oak barrels) and their slight residual sugar (according to the vintage) actually made authentic companions of rich dishes developed. The moelleux excited the contests, by regularly seats the medal clusters like the Cuvée Reserve. High-quality wooden tronçoniques tanks now raise some vintages by making it possible to drink their large volume and micro-oxygenation. To retain: Sec white, rosé-de-loire, anjou-villages, three vintages of slopes-du-layon, including the sublime Reserves of the Castle.
