Villeneuve is located in a beautiful central area of Valle d'Aosta, at about 665 meters above sea level, next to the crossroads of roads leading to the Gran Paradiso National Park. The ancient castle-fortress of Châtel-Argent from the 13th century and the church of Santa Maria dominate the village, making the landscape even more impressive and rich in history and memories.
Downstream flows the Dora Baltea and the Alps envelop this mountain territory that tells the ancient story of the Valdostan viticulture, narrated also by Pliny the Elder in his Naturalis Historia. The Maison Anselmet comes from the work and the passion of generations of men who have loved this land and who continue to love it with the skill and the momentum of all time. A contract dated 1595 speaks of an Anselmet winemaker, who buys a farm right in Villeneuve. Selection of vineyards, qualitative choices and technological innovations make Maison Anselmet today a point of reference for quality viticulture.
Autochthonous vines such as Fumin, Cornalin, Mayolet, Muscat, alongside the international Chardonnay and Pinot noir, for wines that reflect the strength and purity of this land; vineyards like gardens that climb up the living rock; thermal excursions that make the acidity that drives every taste vital. Particularly attractive Prisonnier, a blend of autochthonous that strikes for its elegant aromas and taste sensations so typical and peculiar.
