Coteaux du Layon Chaume

Domaine de La Roche Moreau - Coteaux du Layon Chaume 1er Cru 2021

5/5 (3 reviews)

"A great sweet wine from the Davy family, a true benchmark!

"This excellent wine immediately delights with its aromas of quince, mirabelle plum and candied fruit. Aromas that infuse a mouth that's suave without heaviness, silky, elegant, full-bodied and long, with unfailing harmony, perfectly balanced by freshness. A model for the appellation, and for a long time to come. (Le Guide Hachette 2024)

Domaine des Deux Vallées - Coteaux du Layon Chaume 1er Cru 2022 (Liquoreux)

"A liquorous wine renowned for its richness and concentration, where freshness is the order of the day!"

"Combining richness, complexity and freshness, this Chaume achieves a flawless performance. Notes of candied fruit and warm buttered apple flow happily into a full-bodied, broad and nuanced body, stretched out into a long, beautiful quince finish". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2025).

Château Pierre Bise - Coteaux du Layon Chaume 1er cru 2016 (50cl)

4/5 (1 review)

A full, intense nose with aromas of exotic fruit and honey, followed by a voluminous attack on the palate in perfect balance with the nose. A wine of great aromatic persistence, described by the winemaker as a mellow wine of great finesse.

Château Soucherie - Chaume 1er Cru 2011

4.5/5 (2 reviews)

"It's on these terroirs and thanks to this river that noble rot can do its work and settle on the grapes, concentrating them in sugar. This 2011 has all the characteristics of these sweet wines, with notes of dried fruit and acacia, a supple mouthfeel and a slightly acidic finish. Enjoy with fruit salad or pan-fried foie gras". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2014)

Château de la Guimonière - Chaume 2009 (50cl)

3.3/5 (6 reviews)

A Chaume with a brilliant orange-yellow color and a powerful, complex nose, revealing notes of exotic fruits (mango, passion fruit...). A mellow wine with a delicate, refined layer, with aromas of quince and honey. It combines richness, lightness and freshness in beautiful harmony. The perfect companion for a tarte Tatin...

Château Soucherie - Chaume 2010

3.7/5 (7 reviews)

Note: Guide Hachette 2**(Remarkable wine)
"As for Chaume 2010, born of old chenin (seventy years old), it bears witness to the secret magic of beige schist. A delicious, fresh nectar, also awarded two stars". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2013). A Chaume that first expresses itself with floral aromas (rosemary, basil) before blossoming into a bouquet of exotic fruits and mango... Racy and subtle!

Château Soucherie - Chaume 2009

3.6/5 (5 reviews)

New vintage, 2008 rated: Bettane & Desseauve 15/20
This lovely Côteaux du Layon Chaume expresses itself powerfully with exotic notes and figs. A note of freshness is perceptible (rosemary, Provencal herbs). On the palate, we find the same aromatic palette as on the nose, with density and length.

Château de la Roulerie - Les Aunis 2009

Note: Wine Spectator 93/100, Médaille d'Or Paris 2011
On the nose,the Aunis reveals a succession of floral and vegetal aromas, followed by white fruits (peach, pear, quince...) and citrus fruits (grapefruit)... Rich, unctuous and long-lasting, a combination of character very typical of the grape variety, its vintage and its fabulous terroir.

Château de la Roulerie - Coteaux du Layon 2008

Hand-harvested with 3 successive selections, the Chenin berries that produce this Coteaux du Layon 2008 have received the benefits of noble rot, to give a typical sweet wine that combines very stewed ripe fruit and citrus peel with exotic woods and tobacco. Exotic fruit on the palate, with a lively, elegant minerality and superb freshness. A Layon of rare elegance!
