Les vins du domaine de la petite roche

ANJOU BLANC

Terroir

Where does the wine come from
  • The terroir is the result of all the factors in the vineyard's ecosystem: the soil, the subsoil, the climate, the topography and the wine grower. The Loire vineyards have developed with the diversity that is specific to its varied mixture of soils and the relief and different aspects of the land. Differences in terroirs are expressed very clearly in the great variety of wines, even when they are produced from the same grape variety. The Anjou region benefits from a mild, damp climate with a maritime influence. The Anjou is composed of primary schists, offering a diverse range of wines.
