LOIRA

The Loire Valley's red wines represent the epitome of elegance and finesse, primarily through the noble Cabernet Franc grape. From the prestigious appellations of Chinon, Bourgueil, and Saumur-Champigny, these wines showcase the variety's aromatic complexity and refined structure. The region's cooler climate and limestone-rich soils create wines of remarkable freshness and minerality, featuring characteristic notes of red berries, violets, and pencil shavings, often accompanied by a subtle green pepper note distinctive to Loire Cabernet Franc.
