Domain Belargus owns 2.96-hectares of vines in this eastern and southeastern-facing lieu-dit of Rouères and makes two cuvées from this site, a dry wine bearing the Anjou appellation and a late harvest wine labeled Quarts de Chaume. This puddingstone terroir, a natural pebbly conglomerate, is notable for retaining heat and radiating it back into the vineyard well into the evening. A scant 200m from the Layon, this site is ideally situated for the development of botrytis in the few select clusters left on the vines after the harvest for the Rouères Anjou Sec.
