Crisp, fresh, indulgent, and sweet—these are the hallmarks of this Cabernet d'Anjou! This Cabernet Franc-dominated blend yields an aromatic, well-rounded rosé with pure fruit flavors and a vibrant color. A true treat to enjoy with spicy Mediterranean cuisine!

Food and wine pairings

Food and wine pairings

It pairs beautifully with eel stew, melon topped with berries, tarts, or fruit salads. It’s also an excellent accompaniment to spicy Mediterranean or even Middle Eastern cuisine. With an older vintage, try it with duck à l’orange or a dark chocolate cake… it’s simply wonderful!

Winery rated 1 star (A high-quality, recommended wine that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

Victor and Vincent Lebreton are true ambassadors of the Coteaux-de-l’Aubance. The brothers took over the family estate in 1986 and cultivate 60 hectares of vineyards across various plots and types of schist soil. This allows them to craft single-vineyard wines with subtle nuances, reflecting the character of the blue schist (Le Tertereaux), gray schist (Clos-des-Huttières), or purple schist (Le Clos-Prieur). A welcoming estate with reasonable prices. The range naturally shines brightest with the Aubance. The reds are simple and approachable, focused on immediate enjoyment.

About the estate:

This estate, located just outside Angers, is a regional benchmark, particularly for its “Angevin delicacies,” featuring superb Coteaux-de-l’Aubance wines on the menu. At the helm of the estate founded by his grandfather, Victor, and developed by his father, also named Victor, Vincent Lebreton—who has been in charge since 1995—manages (in a very thoughtful manner) 75 hectares of slate-schist terroir. The sixth generation is now working alongside him.
