COTEAUX DU LAYON “Grand Clos” DOMAINE LEDUC FROUIN

A great wine in the pure Layons tradition, to be kept for 6 to 10 years.
The delicate, fine nose opens with notes of apricot and quince.
The aromas carry through to the palate, which is well balanced between richness and freshness, with a long, syrupy finish that is not overpowering.

TASTING

Our Coteaux du Layon “Grand Clos” is made from hand-picked bunches of golden Chenin grapes that have been raisined. With its fruity and floral aromas… pineapple, acacia, apricot… our wine has a perfect balance between minerality and sweetness. Its fresh, elegant palate means you can enjoy it as an aperitif, with a meal or as a dessert.

TERROIR

– « Le Gand Clos », Village de Sousigné
Soil and subsoil: talc schists and gravel on phtanites
– grape variety : 100% Chenin

COLLECTION

The manual harvest was carried out in September 2018 with our team of around twenty people.

Winemaking

Transported in small bins, the bunches arrive intact at the cellar to be 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 in oak barrels for a year. It was then bottled

A few suggestions …

Fresh or pan-fried foie gras, roast chicken, blue cheese platters … roquefort, fourme d’Ambert, bleu des Causses, apricot, pear and apple tarts, peach ice-cream … and much more, just for a moment of pleasure.
