Descrizione

The Pineau d'Aunis Garance from Chateau de Bois Brinçon is a French wine that immediately captures attention for its uniqueness. This red wine, hailing from the Loire, is made entirely from Pineau d’Aunis grapes, an ancient and little-known variety that provides a bright and lively color while enhancing a distinct aromatic expression. On the nose, the Pineau d'Aunis Garance reveals spicy notes of white pepper and fragrances of fresh red berries, among which currant and wild strawberry stand out.

On the palate, the wine displays a light and harmonious structure, with a freshness that persists thanks to good acidity. The tannins are soft and well-integrated, making the sip pleasantly accessible. The tasting experience is enriched by a return of the spicy sensations perceived on the nose, with a finish that leaves room for slight herbaceous notes.

Ideal for accompanying white meat dishes or fish in a light sauce, this wine proves to be surprising for its versatility and ability to pleasantly engage the palate. Serve at a temperature of 16-18°C to fully enjoy its qualities.

Winery history

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.

Production philosophy

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.
