The Domaine de Terre Brune is located in Notre Dame d’Allençon, Anjou, in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Loire Valley, 20 kilometres south-west of Angers, at a place called La Motte. Just 5 kilometres from the village of Brissac Quincé, famous for its historic Château, the highest in France and one of the most original in terms of its mix of architectural periods. Known as much for its mild climate as for its vineyards, Anjou offers the most diverse range of colours and flavours in the Loire Valley: dry or soft rosés, supple or full-bodied reds, dry or sweet whites and, of course, fine bubbles.
