90+ Cellars Description
Cabernet Franc thrives in the cool climate of France’s Loire Valley. There are several appellations within the Loire that produce this silky and chillable red, but none greater than the world renowned Chinon!
This wine is made from hand-harvested Cabernet Franc grapes grown on gentle hillsides near the banks of the Vienne River. Bunches are gently crushed and fermented in controlled conditions, followed by Malolactic fermentation and a short maturation in tank. With its abundant fruitness and lip-smacking freshness, this wine is best consumed with a slight chill.
TASTING NOTES
A silky red that’s elegant and aromatic with notes of lush raspberries, baked red cherries, crisp roses and a distinct pepperiness. If you’re a fan of Beaujolais or Pinot Noir, you’ll love this wine!
