Note: Guide Hachette 1*Star (a very successful wine), 2006 Loire Wine Fair Ligier d'Or
It is on schist soils bathed in an unparalleled mild climate that the Chenin Blanc vines of Château de la Guimonière take root and flourish, yielding this elegant white Anjou that captivates with its fullness on the palate and its fresh finish... A delight that pairs perfectly with fish and poultry!

5-Star Rated Estate (Outstanding Production)
About the estate:
Built in the 15th century in the town of Rochefort-sur-Loire, this 23-hectare estate belongs to Alain Château’s Vignobles Germain et Associés group, as does Château Bellerive. Located in the Coteaux du Layon-Chaume appellation, which has just been designated Chaume 1er Cru, Alain Château enlisted Michel Doucet to craft the wines. After serving many purposes, the château is now a charming guesthouse offering a pleasant retreat in the region and the chance to savor fine Coteaux du Layon wines. The Chaume 1er Cru is a true masterpiece, with an intense and very rich body, but also a subtle bitter structure that makes it more complex and balanced.
