Cady (domaine)
Information
- Description
- Created in 1927 by François Cady, the estate was established in the heart of the Layon hillsides in Saint Aubin de Luigné. Alexandre and Vanessa Cady are now the fourth generation of winemakers. With a wealth of expertise passed down from father to son, our estate covers 30 hectares of vineyards.
Our flagship grape variety is Chenin, which accounts for two-thirds of our production. We are particularly fond of this variety, not only because of its history in the Loire region, but also for the wines it produces: Anjou blanc, Coteaux du Layon, and Crémant de Loire. Combined with our schist terroirs, our wines are distinguished by their sincere and pure elegance. Most of our harvesting is done by hand, which allows us to select the best that the vine has to offer. Our range of wines is varied and extensive, given the different grape varieties and the diversity of appellations in our region. This allows us to satisfy as many people as possible.
Our estate, which has been 100% organic since 2011, extends to Rochefort sur Loire, where we built a new winery in 2023 on the site of the Clos du Moulin Sainte Catherine. This location, with its sublime panorama, also houses our gîte and guest rooms. Wine tasting and sales still take place at the historic site in Saint Aubin de Luigné.
