Château de Bois-Brinçon

Géraldine et Xavier Cailleau have been at the helm of Château de Bois-Brinçon since 1991. The winegrowing history began in 1219 and continued with alternating fortunes, even enriching grape production with that of apples. In 1990, Bois- Brinçon had 23 hectares of apple orchards and 22 hectares of vines. With the arrival of Xavier, everything changed: he started work on 8 hectares and began with an overall grassing of the vineyard, abandoning impactful agronomic practices. The forest biodiversity and the presence of animals in the vineyard (Higland Cattle) complete the picture in the balance and harmony of nature The choice to make wine by parcels signals the search for a profound identity in the wines produced, the litmus test of a place, Anjou, yet to be fully discovered in the different nuances it presents.
