From the size to the harvest, all the viticultural works are of paramount importance for the quality of the grapes and therefore of the future wines.
The entirely manual harvesting requires several passages (sorting successively) in the plots destined to elaborate sweet wines (bonnzezeaux, Coteaux du Layon).
All wines from the estate are bottled at the property.
