Napa Valley comes to Angé

Clos Roussely sign and vineyards

A touch of Napa Valley came to Angé in the Cher Valley with Vincent Roussely's two open days over the last weekend showing off the extensive renovations and improvements that Vincent has been carrying out since he regained control of the family vineyards.
