Sauvion Saumur-Champigny,Les Gravières Du Roy 2024 0,75l

Sauvion Saumur-Champigny Les Gravieres du Roy shows just how elegant Cabernet Franc can be in the Loire. The grapes come from gravelly, limestone-based sites that lend freshness and fine spice. The bouquet opens with ripe red fruits, cassis and blackberry, followed by peppery hints and a touch of liquorice. On the palate the wine is juicy and medium-bodied yet tightly knit. Tannins are firm but silky and perfectly integrated. Lively acidity keeps everything bright and highlights the cool, mineral character. A long, spicy fruit finish makes it an excellent match for poultry, grilled meats and hearty cheese boards.

Vinification in stainless steel tank preserves the pure Cabernet Franc fruit and the fresh, approachable structure.
