Manoir Coteaux
Manoir Coteaux is just 5 kilometres from the town of Doue La Fountaine, a commune steeped in history and known as the rose capital of France, within a region reputed to be the number one producer of the flowers in Europe, exporting them since the 18th century. The whole property is surronded by vines set in the heart of the Anjou wine growing area.
