The château de la Cassemichère stands in La Chapelle-Heulin, in the heart of the Nantes vineyard region, and now serves as a wine estate. Rebuilt in the early 17th century for a Nantes merchant, it passed through several owners before being restored in the mid-20th century. Its cellar holds an unusual set of carved reliefs, combining images of Bacchus and the biblical scene of the forbidden fruit with themes of wine and gourmandise.
