" Favorite true Favorite this vintage, offering superb value for money"

“Full of fruit and elegance, this sweet wine releases beautiful aromas of candied fruit and citrus on the nose, which then come to life on the palate—broad, full-bodied, rich without being excessive, with great length and freshness. Another remarkable Layon, which would pair beautifully with a citrus-infused sea bass ceviche.” (Le Guide Hachette 2026). The presence of tartar crystals, which in no way affects the quality of the product, requires careful pouring.

About the wine:

Full of fruit and elegance, this sweet wine offers beautiful aromas of candied fruit and citrus on the nose, which then come to life on the palate—full-bodied, rich without being heavy, with great length and freshness. Another remarkable Layon, which would pair beautifully with a citrus-infused sea bass ceviche.

About the estate:

This 28-hectare estate, run by the Davy family for five generations, is located on the Corniche Angevine between the Loire and Layon valleys. The historic wine house is a listed building (17th century), and the cellar is housed in a disused coal mine, where the wines intended for aging are matured. A reliable choice in the Anjou wine region, it is often noted for its sweet wines, particularly its Coteaux-du-Layon and Quarts-de-Chaume.
