Domaine de Montgilet - Cabernet d'Anjou rosé 2023 (tendre)
2*Coup de Coeur
Hachette
"A real treat to share with spicy Mediterranean cuisine!"
“This superb Cabernet Franc will win everyone over. Its strawberry aromas build in intensity as you taste it. Slightly effervescent on the palate, long, full-bodied, and fresh, it stands out for its delicacy and balance, supported by a subtle acidity. It pairs best with exotic cuisine, such as spicy shrimp or chicken in sweet-and-sour sauce.” (The Hachette Guide 2025).

Food and Wine Pairings
It pairs beautifully with eel stew, spicy or Asian dishes that combine sweet and savory flavors, melon, tarts, or fruit salads; with an older vintage, try it with duck à l’orange or a dark chocolate cake…
Bettane & Desseauve
Winery rated 1*Star (A high-quality, recommendable production that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
Victor and Vincent Lebreton are devoted advocates of the Coteaux-de-l’Aubance. The brothers took over the family estate in 1986 and cultivate 60 hectares of vineyards across various plots with different types of schist. 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 charming winery that offers reasonable prices. Unsurprisingly, the range’s finest wines come from the Aubance vineyard. The reds are simple and approachable, designed for immediate enjoyment.

This superb Cabernet Franc is sure to please everyone. Its strawberry aromas build in intensity as you savor it. Slightly effervescent on the palate, with a long, full-bodied, and fresh finish, it stands out for its delicacy and balance, supported by a subtle acidity. It pairs best with exotic cuisine, such as spicy shrimp or chicken in sweet-and-sour sauce.
About the estate:
This estate, located on the outskirts of Angers, is a regional leader, particularly when it comes to “Angers delicacies,” with superb Coteaux-de-l’Aubance wines on the menu. At the helm of the estate founded by his grandfather, Victor, and expanded 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-based terroir. The sixth generation is now working alongside him.
