In Rosnay, Château de Rosnay is one of the major estates in the Fiefs Vendéens Mareuil appellation. The Jard family has run the property since 1948, and the vineyard now covers nearly 90 hectares, planted with grape varieties for white, rosé and red wines.
What can you discover on site?
The estate welcomes visitors to its tasting cellar from Monday to Saturday. It is an opportunity to discover the wines produced in Rosnay and discuss the grape varieties, blends and characteristics of the Vendée terroir.
Can groups be welcomed?
Yes. In 2026, Château de Rosnay states that it welcomes groups by appointment. This format is particularly suited to visitors who want to go beyond a simple tasting at the counter and arrange a guided discovery of the estate.
Why is this estate interesting?
Rosnay is a historic wine-growing village in the Fiefs Vendéens Mareuil appellation. The family property illustrates the recent development of this western French vineyard, with a large estate and production covering all three colours.
Good to know before you visit
In 2026, the tasting cellar is at 5 rue du Perrot, 85320 Rosnay. It is open Monday to Saturday, from 09:00 to 12:00 and 14:00 to 18:00, excluding public holidays. Groups must make an appointment.
A little something extra: it is a good introduction to a Vendée appellation that remains less well known than the major neighbouring Loire vineyards.
