Chateau De Nancelle

The Chateau De Nancelle is a prestigious wine producer located in the Loire Valley region of France. The chateau has a rich history dating back to the 16th century when it was originally built as a hunting lodge for King Francois I. It was later acquired by the Nancelle family in the 19th century and has remained in their ownership ever since.

The chateau is situated in the heart of the Anjou region, known for its beautiful landscapes and excellent wine production. The chateau's vineyards are spread across 15 hectares of the estate, with a majority of the vines being over 50 years old. This allows for the production of high-quality, mature grapes that are essential for creating exceptional wines.

The Chateau De Nancelle is known for its white wines made from the Chenin Blanc grape, which is the most widely planted grape in the Anjou region. The chateau's winemaking philosophy focuses on traditional methods combined with modern techniques to produce wines that are a true reflection of the terroir and the grape varietal.

The chateau produces a range of wines, including dry, semi-dry, and sweet wines, each with their own unique characteristics. Their flagship wine is the Coteaux du Layon, a sweet wine made from grapes affected by the noble rot, also known as botrytis. This results in a rich and complex wine with intense flavors of honey, apricot, and citrus.

The Chateau De Nancelle has received numerous awards and accolades for its wines, including being featured in the prestigious Guide Hachette des Vins and receiving top ratings from wine critics such as Robert Parker and Jancis Robinson.
