About wine:
This Anjou wine does justice to the Chenin grape variety and stands out with its simplicity, offering beautiful aromas of yellow fruit, white flowers, lemon, and pineapple. Combining roundness, freshness, and tension on the palate, it is ready to drink.
About the estate:
Run by the younger generation, Stéphane, Julien, and Vincent Denis, who joined in 2003, 2006, and 2009 respectively, this has been a family business since 1920; originally covering 5 hectares, it now spans 90 hectares. A flagship estate in Haut-Layon, renowned in particular for its red wines, but also very comfortable with white and rosé wines. A (very) safe bet.

Wine rated (2024 guide) 90/100
About wine:
This wine has a fragrant nose of quince, lilac, honeysuckle, and candied apple. Richly textured, its notes of ginger and vanilla are enhanced by pear and balanced acidity. This wine has a structure and backbone that demand to be taken seriously.
