Château de l'Oiselinière stands in Gorges (Loire-Atlantique), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first half of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Located in Gorges, in the heart of the Nantes vineyards, the Oiselinière château is an Italian-style villa built in the early 19th century, surrounded by outbuildings and an orangery. The estate has been tied to winegrowing for centuries, with archives mentioning the name Muscadet as early as 1635. Visitors can also see a gallery of busts of notable men, attributed to the sculptor Debay, and a park laid out in the early 1800s.
