Gault&Millau's review 2039

The nose is fresh, with notes of lime zest, honey, and fresh apple, along with a hint of exotic fruit and candy. On the palate, it’s rich, smooth, and tangy, carried by a welcome sensation of freshness. A subtle hint of bitterness reminiscent of peach skin adds character without throwing the wine off balance. A pleasant, juicy, and approachable wine that leaves a fresh and enjoyable impression.

Château de la Calonnière

A 23-hectare estate in the heart of Anjou with a long history of winemaking. Owned by two brothers since 1967, the château was taken over by their children in 2021. They then embarked on a profound transformation of vineyard and winery practices to improve the quality of the wines: conversion to organic farming, reduced yields, and limited use of additives during winemaking… The result is a prestige range—featuring Anjou white, red, and village wines, Crémant de Loire, and Côteaux-du-Layon—as well as the “Le Colombier” range of traditional cuvées, which also includes a few rosés.
