Historic property in South Brittany. The Château de la Galissonnière was the residence of an illustrious Admiral and botanist: Roland-Michel Barrin, to whom we owe the Magnolia in particular. Philippe and Pierre-Yves Lusseaud, 4th generation of winegrowers on the estate, produce Muscadet AOP Sèvre and Maine, but also Chardonnay and Cabernet Franc on 28 hectares. The variety of soils (gabbro, schist, gneiss and granite) and the nobility of this terroir offer a palette of wine styles, both elegant, but also distinguished and full of character. Our orientation is based on a sense of hospitality and conviviality, which is why the two brothers offer many activities on the estate.

Our story

This area is about family first and foremost. Philippe and Pierre-Yves' great grandfather acquired the Château to produce these wines of character with passion. Wine is a family story, but also a passion above all. We like to share this history of the estate with our customers, both on the history of the estate and on our wines.

Other little stories

To be a winegrower is above all to love one's terroir, to love one's vines and wines. Winegrower is also about passing on this love to others: Making others feel our love that we have at the surface of our skin. The wine that resembles me is a Muscadet Sèvre et Maine sur Lie "Celticae": on the one hand for the emotional side because it is my brand new baby. But this wine is also friendly, refreshing and surprising. That's me! That's me! I have no god, no master! I make my way without worrying about others. Faithful to my convictions and the quality of my wines. All I care about is that my wines delight wine lovers and that my speech appeals to those who read it. A memorable encounter: me!..... More seriously, I would say Yves Ratel, former commercial director of the Rollet Vineyards in St Emilion. A lion, both wise and wise, but whose inner fire is always burning. A man who taught me the virtues of communication and commerce and who taught me to make me feel our love for wine.

My oldest memory: I was 9-10 years old, my grandfather who used to take me to his customers' cafés. He always had a bottle of fresh Muscadet de la Galissonnière in the car to share it with friends and laugh at life and its pleasures. What about me while you're at it? I was playing pinball. Thank you, Grandpa!
