From: Loire, France

Varietal: Cabernet Franc

Tasting Notes: Plum graphite and earth in the nose. Focused savory notes of black fruits, blackberry, plum, and red currant. Hints of anise, eucalyptus, and earth typical of the grape come together to provide a wine of elegance. A solid Chinon: fresh and delicate with a tasty and balanced finish.

“The intense smokiness of this wine is balanced by perfumed red fruits that come through the ripe tannins. Acidity and a light touch of structure allow the wine to keep freshness and accessibility for the short term. Drink the wine from 2020.” –Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 90 points

Pairing: Pair with roast chicken thighs, French onion soup, or simply by itself.
