La Grange de Noue Mea

Loire, Anjou, France

La Grange de Noue Méa is a small family domaine in Saint-Georges-sur-Layon in the heart of the Coteaux du Layon, run by vigneron Hervé Bossé and his partner Marie Percevault. Hervé established himself here in 2014 through a progressive transmission from Patrick Thomas, taking over 5.8 hectares of vines across three parcels planted to Chenin Blanc, Grolleau, and Cabernet Franc. The name "Noue Méa" comes from the lieu-dit where the domaine sits—1 chemin de la Noue Ronde in the hamlet of Méa. In addition to the wines, Marie cultivates cut flowers on the property for floral compositions, and together they have built a renovated barn that serves as their modern cellar and flower workshop since 2017.

Winemaking Philosophy

Hervé describes himself as an artisan vigneron who accompanies the vines, wines, and fruit juices throughout their evolution rather than imposing his will upon them. The guiding principle is minimal intervention—"faire le moins d'interventions possibles pour respecter le raisin au maximum." This means organic certification with biodynamic accompaniment in the vineyard, and in the cellar, no synthetic products—only minimal sulfur and selective filtration. Wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered with no additional SO2.
