Most wines from the region use bottles with this emblem It looks a bit like an industrial estate on this picture but they do make very good wines A look at the schist rock soil in its natural state Montgilet is run by the brothers Victor and Vincent Lebreton. Here are a few picture of Victor (with a cap) Outside our hotel. No joking - it is in front of the château at Domaine du Closel

The chateau is almost in the centre of the village but still peacefully in in a big park Madame de Pontbriand An old Chenin Blanc vine in a dry and stony soil A closer look at the Savennières soil A view over the neighbours: Coulée de Serrant and Roche aux Moines

Another old vine where you can see several flower buds that will turn into grapes Fashion today is to talk about plantation density... Here it is certainly very low. It is almost as if the vines are planted a bit haphazardly in an otherwise empty field, that looks almost barren. You can see the village of Savennières in the background More old vines...   On this parcel some new vines have been planted to replace the ones that have become too old
