Clau De Nell

Domaine Clau de Nell is located in the Loire Valley wine region of Anjou. The vineyards range in age up to 100 years old and are situated on a south-facing knoll. The property consists of 12 contiguous hectares , of which 5 hectares are planted to Cabernet Franc, 4.5 hectares are planted to Chenin Blanc, 2 hectares to Grolleau and 1 hectare to Cabernet Sauvignon. The soil is sandstone grit and red flint over tuffeau (the soft limestone of the region).

These vineyards have been biodynamically cultivated since 2000. In 2006, Anne-Claude and her husband, Christian Jacques, had created a company to help new biodynamic wine growers take advantage of their established commercial network.
