Superb red Saumur, Old vines associated with aging in oak barrels. With the association of Cabernet-Franc and its paradoxical aromas of tangy red fruits that are still very lively (Nice tangy freshness) and green notes specific to the grape varieties; associated with the woody aromas of the barrel. The result is a beautiful green / red / brown olfactory and taste triangle ... a balanced wine that promises beautiful moments of pleasure for at least the next 5 years.
Superbe Saumur rouge, Vieilles vignes associés à un élevage en fût-de-chêne. Avec l’association du Cabernet-franc et ses arômes paradoxaux de fruits rouges acidulés encore très vif (Belle fraîcheur acidulée) et des notes vertes spécifiques au cépages; associées aux arômes boisés du fût. Il en résulte un beau triangle olfactif et gustatif vert/rouge/brun... un vin équilibré qui promet de beaux moments de plaisir pour au moins les 5 prochaines années. — 3 years ago

Very pale gold, honeysuckle on the nose, a tiny bit mineral. Well balanced with just a hint of acidity. Very nice! — 6 months ago
