France

Cabernet Franc achieves its apotheosis in the Loire, and this single vineyard selection in Saumur-Champigny showcases just how classy and delicate this often-rustic grape can be. Opening with notes of pure, ripe red currant, a touch of dark chocolate, and a whiff of fresh-struck match, the palate is ripe, yet not overbearing, highlighted by red currant, and plum, with a tense, mineral finish.

Cabernet Franc has enough richness yet delicacy to match with all kinds of proteins - enjoy the Rouéres beside grilled sausage and salad, a hearty tuna steak with mashed cauliflower, or a rich mushroom ragù over pasta.
