Coteaux du Layon St. Lambert, Domaine Vincent Ogereau, Loire, France 2018

Family owned – 20 hectares – classic botrytised Chenin Blanc

Domaine Vincent Ogereau

On the banks of the Côteaux du Layon, a tributary of the Loire, Domaine Ogereau spans 20 hectares of vineyards, cultivated by husband and wife team, Vincent and Catherine Ogereau. The estate was originally purchased by the Ogereau family in the 1890s, yet over time their emphasis has rarely changed, with the current winemakers maintaining a focus on the importance of grape quality. The result is a sweet nectar of dried fruits, spices and wild honey; Chenin Blanc at its very best.
