Salon trip: Day 2: Layon and L'Aubance

View from Domaine de la Grande Brosse across the Layon towards Château de la Roulerie

After a full morning and a bit more at the Renaissance tasting we headed out to see Philippe Germain at Château de la Roulerie (Saint-Aubin) and then on to Victor Lebreton (Domaine de Montgilet, Juigné-sur-Loire).  Last January Philippe bought part (8.5 ha) of the Domaine de la Grande Brosse and has the rest of the 18 ha of vines on fermage (long-term rent).
