Who we are
About the farm
Since 1920, for four generations, we have been growing vines in Cléré-sur-Layon, on the border of Anjou and Poitou near Saumur; today the estate is run by Stéphane, Vincent and Julien Denis. From about 90 hectares of HVE-certified (since 2018) vineyards on schist, pink granulite and volcanic rock, we make white, red, rosé, sweet Coteaux du Layon and Crémant de Loire wines from Chenin, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Cabernet and Grolleau, as well as sparkling grape juice. We welcome you Monday to Saturday to our modern tasting cellar for free tastings, and also offer guided estate tours by booking; you can also order our wines from our online shop.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
