The Coteaux du Layon 'Delicatesse' by Domaine Clo is a delicate sweet wine from France produced in the Loire Valley based on Chenin, sourced from 40-year-old vines cultivated organically. On the palate, it is very balanced, and the sweetness of the wine is well balanced by great freshness, while on the nose, the notes of candied fruit and floral hints are accompanied by pleasant honeyed nuances. To be served chilled and paired with a platter of aged and blue cheeses or, if you like, with a good foie gras!

The Coteaux du Layon “Delicatesse” from Domaine Clo is a version of Chenin Blanc made in the name of sweetness. A soft and seductive wine, it captivates with its gentle and harmonious character and its intense fruity richness. Its charm lies in the perfect balance between the gentle sweetness typical of French moelleux and the characteristic freshness of the grape variety. The aromas of ripe fruit and candied fruit give the sip breadth and softness. It is a sweet wine of great elegance, perfect to enjoy at the table paired with creamy soft cheeses of medium aging. An unmissable bottle to discover the sweet face of Chenin Blanc.

“Delicatesse” Coteaux du Layon Domaine Clo is a traditional specialty of the Anjou-Saumur region, made by a winery that has been present in these lands for several generations. The estate is famous for producing wines with a handcrafted character, made with great passion and care. The 25 hectares of the property are managed under organic farming, using only sulfur and copper for treatments. The vineyards are surrounded by wild trees and shrubs, that contribute to increasing the biodiversity of the environmental ecosystem. The Chenin Blanc grapes come from the estate's vineyards cultivated on soils characterized by the presence of silt, clay, and gypsum. At the end of the late harvest, the clusters are gently pressed and the free-run must is spontaneously fermented using only indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Before bottling, the wine ages in steel for a few months.

The Coteaux du Layon “Delicatesse” from Domaine Clo is an excellent sweet wine, made according to the customs of the Anjou-Saumur area. In appearance, it presents a fascinating golden color with bright amber reflections. The aromatic profile reveals intense aromas of ripe yellow fruit, candied citrus peels, notes of tropical fruit, hints of honey, fruit jam, quince paste, raisins, and delicate oriental spices. The entry on the palate is broad and enveloping, gentle and soft, with rich fruity aromas leading to a velvety and very persistent finish.
