Winery Château de Bois-Brinçon

The earliest viticultural records for the area date back to 1219, when the Chapter of Saint John the Baptist of Angers planted vines on the Bois-Brinçon lands. After several changes of ownership, the Cailleau family acquired the site in the late 19th century. In the 20th century production paused and was decisively resumed by Xavier Cailleau in the early 1990s. In the 2000s the estate began converting to organic farming and incorporated biodynamic practices, gradually developing parcel-by-parcel production that showcases the different terroirs.

The estate emphasizes vineyard biodiversity and fruit quality: organic and biodynamic practices, compost made from grape pomace kept separate by terroir, the use of herbal infusions and plant decoctions to stimulate vine defenses, and the presence of grazing animals as an element of balance. Vinification is focused on expressing individual sites through single-parcel cuvées.

Located in Le Bois Brinçon, Blaison-Gohier in Anjou, the vineyard extends across several communes in the area and produces wines under the region's typical appellations, such as Anjou, Coteaux du Layon, Coteaux de l'Aubance and Crémant de Loire.
