Anjou
Anjou Wine - Buy Wine from the Anjou Region of France
Anjou, named after its principal town Angers, is 75 kilometres inland from Nantes on the north bank of La Loire. Here, Marc Angeli of Ferme de la Sansonnière is a passionate advocate of natural wine production and ardent critic of the French government’s failure to curb the widespread deployment of chemical pesticides and fertilizers. In protest at their inaction Marc has elected to ignore official wine classification and labels his wines as ‘Produits de France’, regardless of their actual provenance.
At the opposite end of the commercial spectrum, the über reliable Cave de Saumur co-opértaive makes a highly potable Cabernet d’Anjou from pure Cabernet Franc.
