"A dazzling success!"

“Year after year, it’s more of the same for the Davys, who have once again produced a truly beautiful sweet wine. On the nose, subtle toasty notes unfold, followed by candied white fruits and apricot. This profile is enriched by indulgent flavors of prunes and honey on an intense yet perfectly balanced palate—highly appealing, offering an ideal blend of body, finesse, freshness, and richness. It pairs beautifully with fine fish or pan-seared scallops.” (Le Guide Hachette 2026)

About the wine:

Year after year, it’s more of the same for the Davys, who have once again produced a truly beautiful sweet wine. On the nose, subtle toasty notes unfold, followed by candied white fruits and apricot. This palette is enriched by indulgent flavors of prune and honey on an intense yet perfectly balanced palate—highly appealing, offering an ideal blend of body, finesse, freshness, and richness. It pairs beautifully with premium fish or pan-seared scallops.

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 trusted name in the Anjou wine region, it is often recognized for its sweet wines, particularly its Coteaux-du-Layon and Quarts-de-Chaume.
