pure Chinon character, scents are meaty and vegetative, palate is racy and bright showing cranberry, blackberry and mineral, fresh, the acid keeps the mouth watering, a go-to cab franc at value price point and always nice with a meal

This is just reliable Loire CF at a very reasonable price. Versatile food wine, with nice silky texture, crunchy red fruit, nice balance of acid to keep it clean. Not something I'm going to cellar for years, but good to have around and will probably last until you decide you have nothing else to pair with that roast chicken or gratin.

Rather restrained in fruit but somewhat buttery and of moderate weight a decent CF but not great.

Cherry diesel nose. Decent counterbalance on traditional cab franc character.
