A.O.C./A.O.P.
this appellation is located not far from Grand-Lieu lake, south-west of Nantes. It covers 250 hectares under vine, spread over 19 villages extending down to the tip of Vendée. Soil types are varied: micaschist, gneiss, sand with pebbles and even clayey sand south of the lake. The area enjoys a sunny, mild climate with plentiful rainfall which offsets the drying effect of the wind over the stony terrain.
Grape varieties: Vins blancs secs : muscadet

Ferrer Wines: Building a new premium Spanish wine powerhouse
Wine has long been woven into the history of the Ferrer family, but today marks a decisive turning point. After selling its stake in Freixenet to Germany's Henkell – now the sole owner of the flagship Cava house founded by the Ferrer family at the end of the 19th century – the family has chosen to reinvest the estimated €30 million proceeds into its own venture, Ferrer Wines. Ferran Ribalta Riu, managing director of the company, shares insights into this new chapter for the family business, determined to secure its place in the constellation of leading international wine companies.
