The Fief aux Dames is a family-run vineyard in Monnières in the heart of the historic "Vignoble Nantais". The BRAUD family has run the vineyard for nearly a century through five generations. They primarily produce “Muscadet Sèvre et Maine sur
Lie”. The estate produces dry white wines from a unique variety of grape: the Melon de Bourgogne. The Muscadet appellation was awarded AOC certification in 1937. They produce several different cuvees that reflect the true character of their different “terroirs”: selections from specific plots (Monnières St Fiacre), blended cuvees (Tradition), ageing in oak casks.
