The Domaine des Deux Arcs is located in the most wine-producing commune in the west of France, Martigné-Briand. In the heart of the Layon valley, we have been working these limestone and schist soils for more than five generations. Come and discover the Domaine through our wines

Our story

The Domaine des Deux Arcs was created in 1904 by the great-great-grandfather of the Gazeau family. We have evolved through the generations that have succeeded one another on the estate, bringing passion, know-how and love of wine. Today the estate covers 53 hectares with a real mastery of rosé wines (medals and stars in the guide hachette) and sweet wines such as the Coteaux du Layon (2 stars in the guide hachette).

Other little stories

The estate has been using sustainable agriculture since 2000. Aware of the role we play in biodiversity, we are constantly challenging ourselves to improve our practices. A few examples of good practices we have adopted:

In the vineyard :

We make two green manure semi per year to grass the inter-row, with multiple varieties such as peas, rye, phacelia, clover, vetch and many others. This allows us to feed the vine with minerals as we turn over the soil.
Weeding is entirely mechanical for the grassed strips and the cavaillon (
under the vine boletus)In the winery
:We have reduced the inputs substantially thanks to better equipment over the years, which allows us today to offer wines with the minimum of
sulphites. We

offer a range of AOC wines in bulk to limit waste for your

control our purchases of dry matter by favouring short circuits and those with a low carbon footprint
