White Anjou wines
The white Anjou wines (« Appellation of Controled Origin ») are produced from the Chenin grape. Unlike the Coteaux du Layon, we don't wait for the over-ripening of the grape (hand-picked). The fruits must be at optimal maturity, without rot, when the grains have a golden colour.
We produce, depending on the years, up to 2 'cuvées' :
