Wine Description:
Château de la Roulerie Coteaux du Layon 1er Cru 'Chaume' is a sweet wine produced from late-harvested Chenin Blanc grown in the Loire Valley. Château de la Roulerie is a 36-hectare estate located in Saint-Aubin-de-Luigné in the Coteaux du Layon area of Anjou. Yields are low and the wines are made using minimal intervention. Malolactic fermentation, a process used to soften acidity is blocked in order to retain freshness in this sweet wine. Vinification occurs in large oak barrels to gently oxygenate the wines without imparting sweet oak spice.
Pros:
  • Superb concentration and a lingering finish

Wine Expert Note:

Château de la Roulerie Coteaux du Layon 1er Cru 'Chaume' has a viscous appearance with a medium golden color. On the nose, this wine offers an enticing bouquet of luscious tropical fruits, such as pineapple and mango, intertwined with delicate floral notes and a hint of crystallised ginger. Upon tasting, it reveals ripe quince, honeyed citrus, and ginger spice. There is a remarkable balance between sweetness and mouthwatering acidity. The finish is long, honeyed and beautifully detailed.

Château de la Roulerie Coteaux du Layon is a sweet white wine produced by Château de la Roulerie, located in the Loire Valley of France. Chenin Blanc grapes are harvested late in the season when they may be affected by botrytis, this further concentrates the sugar and acidity in the grapes. The must is partially fermented leaving a high level of residual sugar in the wine, after which they are matured in old, large oak barrels prior to bottling.
