HISTORY
Le Fief les Montys belonged, in 1414, to Jean de Saint-Aigan. There is only an isolated tower remaining from this former seigniorial house.After the Revolution, the property was acquired, about 1810, by the architect François-Léonard SEHEULT of Nantes who built, in 1813, the current château in its ‘directoire’ style. Very well known in the region, one can still admire in Nantes on Héronnière street his building with sculpted figures serving as an architectural support.The house les Montys is registered on the French Supplementary Historic Monument list, and opens its doors, every year in September, for Heritage Days.In 1994, the château and the vignoble were sold separately; le Marquis de Goulaine, a passionate and fascinating man, became the owner and recoltant of the Clos until the vintage 2000.It was in 2001 that I had the opportunity to acquire this wonderful terroir with its rich past.
