Château de la Ragotière
Château de la Ragotière
Situated in the heart of Muscadet Sèvre et Maine, Chateau de la Ragotière is owned by the Couillaud family who have been making wine for over 150 years. The terroir speaks for itself, as the soil is mainly composed of micaschist, a very mineral-rich soil that results in aromatic, mineral-driven wines. This combined with an oceanic climate gives their Chardonnay’s a truly unique character, producing late-maturing and well-structured vins de garde
Ragotiere 2024 Chardonnay
French White
Bright lemon, grapefruit, white flowers and crushed rock lead a fresh, energetic white. The palate combines brisk citrus with generous texture and richness, keeping mineral detail alongside the fruit. Grapefruit and lemon form the clear citrus profile, while white floral notes add a lighter aromatic layer. Texture, richness and freshness remain the central features from the first impression onward.
Domaine de la Ragotière 2024 Sauvignon Blanc
French White
Green apple, lemon zest, gooseberry and white peach lead with fresh herbs and a cool wet-stone note. Lively and crisp, the palate carries bright citrus and a restrained tropical accent over chalky mineral texture. Clean acidity keeps the shape precise, extending into a fresh, elegant and persistent finish.
Domaine de la Ragotière 2019 Cœur de Schistes Chardonnay
French White
Citrus, white peach and delicate flowers open with a quiet touch of oak. Elegant and layered, the palate balances ripe fruit with vibrant acidity and fine mineral tension from mica-schist soils. The texture is generous without becoming heavy, carrying purity, subtle complexity and poised freshness through a long, harmonious finish.
Château de la Ragotière 2019 La Petite Étoile Muscadet
French White
Clean and mineral, with lemon, green apple and white flowers set against a subtle saline edge. Lees ageing in sandstone egg-shaped vats gives the palate gentle texture while preserving the bright, dry profile. The finish is crisp, stony and quietly persistent. Pair with oysters, shellfish, grilled white fish or fresh goat cheese.
