New owner, friendly, welcoming, vines unfortunately hit hard by frost during my visit, a winery and a clean cellar. The wine is not quite to my taste but that is nevertheless very subjective. Good luck for the future

Great welcome at the estate, nice variety in the range which allows you to go from a fruity Muscadet to a more mineral Muscadet, or even the estate's special vintage which is very balanced and very pleasant to drink. In short, we are won over. To have in the cellar. Thank you again for your welcome!

Excellent welcome to the estate by the new owners. A great Muscadet! The wines are excellent and the range is suitable for different moments (bubbles for the aperitif, the petit and grand Mouton for the meal and even an orange wine for dessert).

Excellent wine! Very much above what we generally expect for Muscadet. The vintages are very well crafted (the “One” is a treat). I only know the wines yet, but I look forward to being able to visit the estate once the health situation (COVID) has finally stabilized.

A superb vineyard with a long history of very welcoming winegrowers. The Grand Mouton wines are good, vintage One and Carte Noire (but only Muscadet). What more could you ask for?
