In the 13th century, a small village inhabited by several large country families, from the 16th century, The Grande Vignolle became a lordly dwelling, with its dovetail and its chapel. In 1990 we decided to blend our wines with the nourishing stone of Saumur Champigny and turn The Grande Vignolle into the showcase of Filliatreau Estate wines.

If you are a lover of beautiful stone and fine wine, and you want to discover an exceptional stone-age setting, which expresses centuries of history, you  should absolutely not visit the region without coming to see The Grande Vignolle. The withdrawal of the Loire in the Tertiary age enabled man to hollow out an utterly remarkable stone-age site.
