Through an immersive visitor experience, designed by THE architectes and the Quand même architecture and scenographic design firm to showcase the character-defining features of muscadet (melon B. grape, mosaic of terroirs, ageing on lees), the ground floor of this mansion house in Vertou overlooking the Sèvre Nantaise river, houses a large wine bar, a restaurant, a visitor exhibition area and a professional kitchen.
The experience is also educational, with the opening of the Maison des Vignerons to the public. In a nod to Jules Verne, the site tells the extraordinary story of Muscadet in a subtle way.
In this newly designed setting, chef Joanna Page proposes a cuisine based on sea-inspired food and wine pairings.
Visitors are able to enjoy the bucolic setting of the four-hectare English-style park overlooking the river Sèvre.
In the off-season, Château de la Frémoire is offering professional events and tasting activities.
