Chenin
blanc or Pineau de Loire is the only authorized grape
variety for the AOC Savennières.
Cabernet Franc and Cabernet
Sauvignon are the two varietals used for our red wines
: AOC Anjou (rouge) and AOC Anjou-Villages .
The rows are 1.60m to 2m
apart and the vine plants 1m apart. A 60cm strip is
seeded with grass every other row in order to protect
the soil's microbial life , avoid erosion and control
the vigor of the vine. The other row is ploughed.
Our consultant Clément
Baraut mentions : " A good part of the vineyard has
been grass-covered, which allows for good aeration of
the soil, maintenance of its porosity and an organic
nutrient supply. The putting under grass allows mastering
of the vine vigor and growth, and makes it less sensitive
to diseases.
