Inauguration of Castel's bottling plant@La Chapelle-Heulin

Photo taken in September 2008 of the construction

Ouest-France reports on the official opening of Castel's enormous bottling plant at La Chapelle-Heulin, which is the largest in Europe, on Friday 27th November. The plant has been in operation since June. The whole site is now fenced and gated off.

See my October 2008 posting of the construction work.

My friend Marc's comments on Castel's muscadets are rather disappointing.
