A vineyard spanning some 40 hectares, nestled along the banks of the Layon River—which divides it in two—the Château de la Roulerie was founded in the 14th century, though its current structure dates from the late 19th century.
Cultivated by Philippe and Marie Germain for the past 25 years, it has been certified organic since 2015.
10 hectares of Cabernet Franc and 30 hectares of Chenin grow on hillsides and terraces composed mainly of schist.
When paired with ideal growing conditions, Chenin truly comes into its own.
Château de la Guerche comes from a vineyard acquired in 2009; Les Grappes is pleased to present their Anjou Blanc!

Château de la Guerche
Located inSaint-Aubin-de-Luigné, in the heart of Anjou, Château de La Guerche is a historic estate in the Loire Valley whose origins date back to the 18th century. Surrounded by schist-rich hillsides overlooking the Layon River, the estate enjoys a privileged setting where oceanic influences and diverse soil types allow for the production of wines that are fresh, elegant, and deeply influenced by their terroir.
The vineyard stretches across hillsides composed mainly of schist, sandstone, and volcanic rock—soils particularly well-suited to the iconic grape varieties of Anjou. Chenin Blanc, the region’s true hallmark, expresses its full finesse here, producing crisp, mineral-driven white wines with excellent aging potential. As for the reds, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon produce rich, indulgent wines with silky tannins and aromas of red fruit and spices.
