Made from over-ripe grapes affected by noble rot, this Layon liquoreux is the color of the burning sun. Its exuberant nose, with aromas of exotic fruits (pineapple, lychees...), heralds a highly aromatic palate, with a rich attack and a lively finish with sweet notes of caramelized pears. In terms of value for money, this Layon will surprise many!

Guide Hachette des vins

Domaine noté (guide 2025) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)

About the domain :

Managed by the younger generation, Stéphane, Julien and Vincent Denis, who arrived in 2003, 2006 and 2009 respectively, this is a family business that dates back to 1920; 5 ha at its origins, 90 ha today. A flagship estate in the Haut-Layon region, renowned in particular for its red wines, but also very much at ease with white and rosé wines. A (very) safe bet.
