15,00  incl. VAT

Based in the troglodyte village of Martigné-Briand, Antoine Leduc, an oenologist, and his sister Nathalie have been running the family estate (30 hectares under sustainable agriculture) since 1990. Their wines are kept, as they should be, in the coolness of underground cellars dug into the falun. A sure bet in the Anjou wine region.

Terroir: “Le Grand Clos”, Sousigné village, Soil and subsoil: talc schist and gravel on phtanite. Grape variety: Chenin
Harvest:The grapes were picked by hand in mid-November 2015. The bunches selected during the different passages are golden, botrytised and overripe.
Vinification:The grapes are transported in small bins and arrive intact at the winery, where they are poured into a pneumatic press. A long (around 10 hours) and delicate pressing process begins. This is followed by static settling, alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel vats and ageing. Finally, the wine was bottled on the estate in March 2016.
This beautiful Layon is fresh and well-balanced, with white fruits and citrus fruits in a supple, pleasant register. Ideal with spiced gambas or apricot tart.
