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.

A lovely, lively, and well-balanced Anjou; with ripe Cabernet Franc.

Review by Mr. Gilles D. Published on March 10, 2023
A simple yet charming wine, with a smooth, fresh profile bursting with vibrant red fruit, complemented by subtle earthy notes. Light-bodied with fine tannins that are slightly drying, particularly on the finish. A steal of a price. Perfect when chilled to 15°C for an impromptu aperitif with friends, followed by a well-browned tartiflette made with farmhouse Robochon cheese. Rating = 3.7.
