Sauvion Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil,Le Puy Bel Abord 2024 0,75l
Sauvion Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil Le Puy Bel Abord is an elegant Cabernet Franc from the middle Loire. The vines grow on sandy, limestone-rich soils that bring finesse and freshness to the wine. The bouquet shows red and dark berries, cherry and subtle herbal notes. On the palate the red is juicy, medium-bodied and beautifully balanced, with fine-grained tannins and lively acidity. A cool, lightly mineral edge adds extra refinement. The long, fruit-and-spice finish makes this a versatile partner for poultry, grilled meats and assorted cheeses.
Where Atlantic air cools the Val de Loire, Sauvion has shaped a distinctly Muscadet-minded identity since 1935. With Château du Cléray at its heart in the Nantes vineyards, the house pairs close relationships to Sèvre et Maine parcels with the discipline of a long-standing Loire wine trade, guided today by a new generation of the Sauvion family....
Cabernet Franc is a classic red grape known for raspberry, redcurrant, herbs, fine tannins and fresh acidity. It is important in the Loire Valley and Bordeaux.
The grape is exciting because it offers elegance and savoury complexity without excessive weight. Pair it with poultry, pork, duck, mushrooms, lentils, lamb and herb-driven dishes.
