LoireTasting #6 - cab franc serie
Deep garnet color, thick (not filtered, not glued) Beautiful evolved notes - red fruits, licorice, pomegranate, and many shades between undergrowth, spices etc. developing during tasting. A Loire wine that has magnificently endured 18 years in cellar and needs to take the time to open.

Robe grenat profonde, épaisse (non filtrée, non collée) Belles notes évoluées - fruits rouges, réglisse, grenade, et nombreuses nuances entres sous-bois, épices etc. se développant en cours de dégustation. Un vin de Loire qui a magnifiquement supporté 18 ans de garde et qui a besoin de prendre le temps de s’ouvrir. — 3 years ago

Delicious red fruit, fresh and almost mineral, good balance, delicious and great price too.

Comme toujours un beau rapport qualité prix, frais, fin, fruits rouges délicieux, acidité appuyée avec des tannins assez fins, bel ensemble, très bien. — 5 years ago

Youthful ruby color fading to watermelon pink on the rim; tart red fruits and mossy dank earth, enough funkiness to be mistaken for a Jura blend. Pretty kickass for generic Burg Rouge — 8 years ago

Color is medium-red, oak barrel notes, but in nice balance to the red cherry aromas and flavors, nice acid, medium-long finish, very good Alsatian Pinot Noir, which I expect will go very well with our grilled Canadian wild sockeye salmon! — 3 years ago

A very unique wine. Needs time to open. Notes immediately of fresh raspberries then opens up more with notes of salt on tomato. — 5 years ago

To finish an appetizer of Scallops with cauliflower milk. A very nice and gorgeous nose of red fruit, raspberries, strawberries, soft spices and a touch of red pepper, without this being the focal point. A soft, balanced and harmonious wine, not the most powerful Rougeard I drank, but elegant, classy and delicious. 91-92+

Superbe nez fin, délicat et assez complexe de Fruits rouges, framboises, fraises, épices douces et avec du poivron rouge aussi mais sans être trop végétal. Une bouche harmonieuse et équilibrée, en finesse et délicatesse surtout, avec une belle longueur. 91-92

As with all wine, the food accompanying the wine influences your opinion. We all found this wine rather good tonight (casserole with barley, lamb & pork belly). A little too much alcohol warmth perhaps but ............. — 8 years ago

Manure. Leather. That old world funk, all up in my nose. I love it. Pair it with the deep, dry black fruit in the mouth, and I'm transported back to a quiet evening in Carcassonne. — 8 years ago

Great value for the price. Very fresh, crisp, dry wine with green apples and grapefruit notes. Pleasant acidity, not as „stingy” as usually Picpoul is. Perfect companion to simple spaghetti with olive oil, pizza with white sauce or any friend who just steps by to talk about summer vacations in the South of France. — 5 years ago

Goodness the value of a value Merlot based bottle of tastiness. Purpley it is. But it isn’t just purple drapes, there is a pot of hot spiced tea bubbling and someone is puffing a cigar just outside the window. Where are you looking to through this wine window? At your friends. Wearing purple masks but they are there for you. — 5 years ago

@Delectable Wine This is a VDF from the Moselle in France. Winemaker is Remi Gauthier. This is 100% Pinot Noir. Slamming nose. Cherry cola, big big cherries, licorice, mineral and even ripe strawberry. Super aromatic and wonderful. Unique as well. So juicy and ripen with ample lip smacking mid season cherry fruit and wonderful acidity and freshness. Terrific purity and freshness. Impressive length and so so well made. — 7 years ago
