PASSING CASTLE
Located on the cantons of Haut-Layon, the vineyards of the castle of Passavant (magnificent eighteenth century castle) span nearly 55 hectares. Organic viticulture has been practiced since 1998 on soils composed of sandy silt and schistous mother rock. And in 2011, the operation also obtained a biodynamic certification. The specifications? The total absence of synthetic plant products, synthetic weed and chemical fertilizers. The ethics and know-how of Olivier Lecomte have already allowed him to pick up more than sixty medals in various competitions and seduce nearly 25 Angevine conservators, where the charms of these tender or dry rosés can be tasted, these tall dry white white whites, or these anjou. powerful and colorful villages. The first line: Magic complexity, for exceptional vintages, and highlights in particular the noble and powerful Anjou Villages-Nerra (the builder of the castle!) or the dry Anjou dry Jarret Montchenin, both large and complex. The second: Poetic expression, concerns the wines only vinified in the good vintages (white anjou, anjou-villages origin, coteaux-du-layon). Finally, the last: Ethical simplicity, highlights in particular the very original category «Think nature», a series of wines at the low level of alcohol (10 degrees), treated in the 3 colors.
