Region

Domaine Patrick Baudouin

Chaudefonds-sur-Layon is a bourgade in Anjou Noir named after the dark-coloured shales, sandstones and volcanic rocks of the very old Armorican base, on a ridge between the Loire and the Layon (a tributary of the Loire). It is situated south-west of the city of Angers, in the heart of the Anjou AOC.
