Loire’s Cabernet Franc is a wine that knows how to make itself desired. Depending on the vintage and storage conditions, it can develop complex and refined flavors over 5 to 10 years. Its red fruit notes transform over time, revealing deeper aromas of undergrowth and spices.
But beware, it’s not just about letting it sit in your cellar like a forgotten relic. To fully appreciate its nuances, it’s crucial to store it at a constant temperature and in a dark place. With a bit of patience, you’ll discover a wine that continually renews itself, offering a new side of its personality with each tasting.
Historically, the regions of Chinon and Saumur have produced Cabernet Francs that shine by their graceful aging capacity. Thus, you won’t just experience a gustatory adventure but also a journey through the time and wine culture of the Loire Valley.
