Saint-Lambert-Du-Lattay: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Saint-Lambert-du-Lattay combines winegrowing, historical traces, a specialised museum and paths through vineyard landscapes.

Culture

Since 2 August 2002, the Musée de la vigne et du vin d'Anjou has held the French designation “Musée de France”. It currently contains more than 2,000 objects as well as a documentary collection of more than 8,500 items.

History

The first three “gagneries” of Saint-Lambert-du-Lattay were established between 1037 and 1054 as three settlement and agricultural areas, each covering approximately 50 hectares, which were entrusted to colonists for clearing and cultivation. The historic “gagneries” and the paths connecting them continue to shape the landscape of Saint-Lambert-du-Lattay; 900 years later, their traces are still clearly visible in the land register and in aerial photographs.

Wine

Domaine Sauveroy is a family-owned winery in Saint-Lambert-du-Lattay with a 26-hectare organically farmed vineyard. The winery is open year-round; visitors are welcomed in the cellar to discover and taste the winery’s wines.
