Saumur Champigny Cabernet Franc

14 Anjou side by side 💥💥

(Le Clos). Without question my favorite wines from the Loire, both red and white. Complex, concentrated and finessed showing red currants, violets, exotic spices, damp earth, black truffle, roasted herbs and with a beautifully elegant texture and mouthfeel. Finishes long with very good depth and precision. And Le Clos is just their starting line. 💥

What a wine, once opened up.
Superdry but super structure.
Complexity and long long long.
I’d be totally lost without the label, got some Provence scents, herbs, sun, jam and then austerity, austerity, austerity.
Probably could have wait a few more years.

Ok I’m a sucker for a slight herbaceous green pryazine whatever you want to call it element. I think it adds some character and makes it more interesting

Tobacco and leather but light bodied. Depth for days. Why people drink old world! From Rebel Rebel.
