Opened and paired with savory chicken vegetable soup. Linear, balanced, and authentic. Good Cab Franc energy, tightness, and green/savory notes, but a little more on the sweet side for my liking. Drink 2020-2023. Technical score 90. Enjoyment score: 89.

This is straight up juicy, fruity, but elegant cab franc from the loire, without a lot of oaky perfume and not dressed up. Green peppers and gravel elements are supporting notes playing in the background, but not on front stage. Nothing too complex but it is what it says it is, and will do just fine doing what it says it will do.
I really like this producer. Feels like a warm year with generous fruit, but it is all in check with good acidity. Perhaps this drinks best next couple of years, on the fruit so to say?
