Domaine des Baumard Carte d'Or Coteaux du Layon

Domaine des Baumard Carte d'Or Coteaux du Layon is a sweet white wine produced by Domaine des Baumard in the Coteaux du Layon appellation in the Loire Valley, France. Coteaux du Layon is a well-known appellation in the Loire Valley that specializes in the production of sweet wines. These wines are made from the Chenin Blanc grape, which is known for its potential for producing deliciously sweet wines with good acidity.

The Carte d'Or is a specific cuvée or blend of grapes used for the production of this wine. The grapes are harvested late in the season, when they have been affected by noble rot, also known as "botrytis cinerea". This fungus causes the grapes to dry out and increase their sugar content, concentration and complexity.

The wine is fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks or oak barrels, depending on the winery and desired style. The result is a luscious and sweet wine with rich aromas of dried fruit, honey, apricots and citrus.

Domaine des Baumard Carte d'Or Coteaux du Layon is appreciated for its elegance, balance and longevity. The sweet character is nicely balanced by the lively acidity, so that the wine does not become too heavy or sticky.

Wine - Food pairing

This wine is an excellent choice as a dessert wine and goes well with foie gras, blue cheese, fruit desserts and sweet pastries. It can also be enjoyed as a standalone wine to enjoy after meals.
