2005 Saumur Champigny 100% Cabernet Franc

The Cave De Saumur Selection is an enticing expression of Cabernet Franc from the renowned Saumur Champigny region, showcasing the unique terroir of the Loire Valley. This vintage is characterized by a medium body that elegantly balances richness and finesse, making it a delightful choice for various occasions. The wine boasts a lively acidity that enlivens the palate, and its fruit intensity is prominent, featuring luscious notes of ripe red fruits, particularly raspberry and cherry, intertwined with subtle herbal undertones. Tannins are present but remain soft and approachable, contributing to a smooth mouthfeel that rounds out the wine's profile. As a dry red, this vintage captures the essence of its varietal heritage while offering a refreshing character that invites further exploration. Enjoy this delightful wine now or cellar it for a few more years to experience its evolving complexity.
