The coat of arms of two dragons with horns of plenty has been the emblem of the family home since 1895, and wisteria blooms here every spring. The Vendée flows at the foot of the family’s 22 hectare vineyard, backed by the Mervent-Vouvant forest. Its clay-silica soil gives Pissotte wines their distinctive character and fine aromas. In the coolness of the cellar, you’ll appreciate the warmth of the welcome. Here, we are winegrowers from father to son. Generations pass, but the values remain: “Tradition, balance, respect for the things in life”. The estate converted to organic farming in 2016
