Coteaux du Layon Faye – 2021 – 75 cl

Grape variety: 100% Chenin Blanc

Residual sugar: 130 g/L

Coteaux du Layon Faye is an elegant sweet white wine, with aromas of ripe fruit and honey, supported by fine freshness that balances the sweetness and extends the finish. Its terroirs and exposures make it an exceptional Coteaux du Layon.

Food & Wine Pairing Suggestions:

– goose or duck foie gras, semi-cooked or pan-seared
– fish and seafood (lean fish, shellfish, coconut curry prawns) — the wine’s sweetness and acidity pair well with these dishes
– poultry or duck breast with honey — the wine’s slight sweetness enhances the sweet notes of the sauces
– lightly spiced or exotic dishes — for example curry prawns or light Thai dishes (the wine softens the spices)
– blue-veined cheeses (Blue cheese, Fourme, Roquefort) — an interesting contrast between fruitiness and the salty/spicy character of the cheese
– aged cheeses or goat’s cheese — especially with a richer, fruit-forward wine
– fruit-based desserts (fruit tart, pear and chocolate charlotte, Anjou plum pâté)
– dried or candied fruit tarts — the wine’s aromatic profile (honey, quince, ripe fruit) pairs perfectly
– richer desserts (blueberry tart, clafoutis)

Cellaring: Enjoy now, but this wine also has excellent ageing potential (10 to 30 years).
