(2017 Vintage Notes)

A full-bodied 100% Chenin Blanc with a concentrated nose featuring toasty, smoky notes accompanied by hints of citrus and candied fruit. Rich and full-bodied with a lemony freshness, this white wine spent several months in oak barrels, lending it a hint of spice on the finish. Offering excellent value for money, don’t miss out on this delightful Anjou white!

Guide Hachette des vins

Wine rated (2019 guide) 2** stars (2017 vintage) (Outstanding wine)

Rated estate (2026 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

Led by the younger generation—Stéphane, Julien, and Vincent Denis, who joined the business in 2003, 2006, and 2009, respectively—this has been a family business since 1920; it started with 5 hectares and now spans 90 hectares. A flagship estate in Haut-Layon, renowned in particular for its red wines, but also highly skilled in producing whites and rosés. A (very) safe bet.

Magnificent. A truly beautiful Chenin. Unbeatable value for money given the quality. Some of the more prestigious estates could take a cue from this one.
