Château de Chaintres
The Chaintres Castle extends over some twenty hectares, including the famous Clos du Château, which is exceptionally large and unique in the appellation (nearly 18 hectares). It was planted in 1675 by the Oratorian Fathers of Notre Dame des Ardilliers, who chose the site for its terroir and sunshine.
After being one of the first estates to be certified in Sustainable Agriculture, the Chaintres Castle turned to organic farming, and is now certified organic by Ecocert.
