A “blanc de noir” wine made from a blend of Groslot and Cabernet Franc, resulting in an elegant wine thanks to aging in underground ceramic vats. This process highlights the purity and finesse of the wine’s natural aromas, which are preserved without filtration or the addition of sulfites. The distinctive nature of the clay-loam terroir, enriched with shell-rich faluns, contributes to a unique mineral structure, resulting in a wine of great complexity.

Domaine Les Grandes Vignes
In Anjou, the Vaillant family has been managing Domaine Les Grandes Vignes biodynamically for many years. The vineyard is primarily planted with Chenin and Cabernet Franc, emblematic grape varieties of the region, cultivated with constant attention to soil balance and vine vitality.
The parcels located around Thouarcé exhibit diverse profiles, which the estate interprets through precise vinification techniques, sometimes conducted without added sulfur. The white wines develop a natural texture and measured tension, where the fruit maintains a restrained and clear expression. The red wines favor supple structures and a smooth mouthfeel, resulting from controlled extractions.
The aging processes are conducted with restraint, with the aim of preserving the direct expression of the terroir and the clarity of the profiles. The estate's entire approach is characterized by great consistency, offering wines true to their origin and consistent in their expression over time
