Landron

The story of Domaines Landron begins around 1945. At that time, Jo Landron’s father, Pierre, and his brother, Julien, gradually made viticulture the main activity of the small family farm, which then owned only three hectares of vineyards.

From 1950 to 1975, they converted land left fallow during the wars into vineyards, exchanged and purchased plots, building a company with a clear identity and driven by meticulous care in both the vineyard and the cellar, today dedicated to biodynamics.

Landron

The richness and uniqueness of their vineyard lie in its geological and microclimatic diversity, which allows them to offer a varied range of wines of exceptional quality.

Loire Valley

The Loire Valley is one of the largest and most interesting wine regions in France, located west of Burgundy: here, viticulture is practiced right along the namesake river. Various types of wines are produced, including whites, reds, rosés, sparkling wines, and even sweet wines. The Loire is especially famous for its excellent white wines, particularly from Sauvignon and Chenin Blanc grapes, though it also has a noteworthy production of red wines, mainly based on Cabernet Franc and Gamay.
The Loire Valley is also famous for Muscadet, a wine renowned for its ideal pairing with shellfish, made from the Melon de Bourgogne grape, which is called Muscadet in this region.

The climate in the Loire Valley is generally quite cool; both the temperature and the latitude place the region almost at the limit for the survival and cultivation of vines. This results in a particularly low sugar content in the grapes, producing wines that are light, low in alcohol, and characterized by high acidity. When barrels are used for maturation, the outcome includes robust wines with toasted notes, features that differ from what can be considered the classic styles of the region.

The region stretches along the course of the Loire River, the longest in France. The most suitable areas start from the cities of Nevers, Bourges, and Orléans. From these territories come the most famous wines of the region: AOCs such as Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, Vouvray, Savennières, Quarts de Chaume, Montlouis, Chinon, Bourgueil, Menetou-Salon, and Muscadet. The most important area of the Loire Valley is in the north, itself divided into three zones: one more westerly, near the Atlantic coast (around Nantes), where the AOC Muscadet is found, a central one with the AOCs Anjou-Saumur and Touraine, and an eastern one (south of Orléans), with the AOCs Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé. The production in the two outer areas focuses on white wines, while in the central area the production is varied, with whites, reds, rosés, sparkling wines, and sweet wines made from grapes affected by Botrytis Cinerea. The Loire Valley also has a vast area of Vin de Pays production.

Muscadet Sèvre et Maine

The Muscadet-de-Sèvre-et-Maine appellation is located in the western Loire Valley and is the only area in France where this grape variety is cultivated, despite the name "Muscadet" having origins linked to Burgundy, its ancient place of origin.

The Muscadet-de-Sèvre-et-Maine sub-region represents the highest quality level for this type of wine, thanks to the unique conditions of the territory. Situated between the Sèvre and Maine rivers, this area benefits from a particularly suited terroir, combining soils rich in limestone and clay with a favorable microclimate, ideal for enhancing the wine’s freshness and minerality characteristics.
Between the Sèvre and Maine rivers, this area benefits from a highly suitable terroir
