Gault & Millau
This carefully crafted dry Anjou is an intense, aromatic white wine with a remarkably intense bouquet of fresh fruit and citrus aromas. A wonderfully mineral wine with great liveliness and undeniable charm... Perfect with fish or asparagus, for example!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2024 guide) 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
This 45-hectare vineyard, 80% of which is planted with Chenin, produces all styles of white wine. René makes the wine, while his older brother Christophe works in the vineyards. Although not organic, the soil is worked "their way." The same care prevails in the cellar, with a variety of vats of all kinds (stainless steel, cement, cylindrical, underground, 30 hl wooden vats by Stockinger, etc.), suitable for crafting nuanced and complex wines. Sweet wines are the estate's great strength, as is the Savennières series (13 hectares), which is impeccably balanced. The small rosé and red cuvées are a notch below, and the whites tasted this year are too inconsistent to retain the third BD rating.
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated estate Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)
About the estate:
This 46-hectare estate, created from the merger of two family farms, has been run by René Papin since 2010. It is particularly renowned for the quality of its white wines, both dry and sweet. Not to be missed.

Note and opinion by Mr. JEAN PIERRE D. Published on 04/01/2018
Drunk in 2014 (too early). Drunk in 2017: incredible difference and excellent with asparagus and crab claws. Drunk in 2018 with oysters and sole: less harmonious pairing.
