Domaine des Sylphes

Who's behind Domaine des Sylphes?
Denis Crand & Séverine Cucuillère arrived at the Moutiers-en-Retz wine estate in 2023. Wine is a return to her roots for Séverine, as her grandfather was a winegrower in the Audois region, and she fell in love with it when she worked for a Grands Crus Classés wine merchant in the Bordeaux region. Nature is a return to the roots for Denis, who has had a natural attraction for the land from an early age and a confirmed dexterity for manual labour.

Wines made at the Domaine :
The Domaine des Sylphes wines will be a perfect match for the local seaside produce: seafood, fish... and the soothing surroundings of the Pays de Retz: aperitifs, barbecues, beaches... You'll find the legendary Muscadet appellation and the emblematic grape varieties of the Pays de Retz, Grolleaux Gris and Grolleaux Noirs.

In all, 11 grape varieties are meticulously cultivated to produce a full range of wines: mineral whites with saline notes, fresh rosés, light, fruity reds and delicate bubbles (with or without alcohol).


The vineyard has been converted to organic farming since 2022.
