This wine is from France, Loire region. Wine LOIRE VALLEY

Philippe Vatan was thrust into the limelight at the Château du Hureau by the tragic and untimely death of his brother in 1987. Involved in a completely different business up until this time, it is testament to his fortitude and skills as vigneron that he has made such a success of this domaine, now considered one of the top in the appellation. Seventeen hectares (42 acres) including 21 separate vineyard plots are spread around the towns of Dampierre Sur Loire, Souzay, Champigny and Saumur and are...

The vines are of considerable age and yields are kept low. The wine is vinified in stainless-steel and bottled unfiltered. It is rich in red fruit flavors, with a touch of tobacco and licorice in the finish and has excellent aging potential.

One of our favorite Cab Franc expressions is the scent of rain hitting concrete on a hot summer's day-a scent close to that smell you also get when walking in a chilly old castle-something redolent of stones, minerals, and sweet H20 coated air. This has got those notes in spades and is very tasty juice. It's also got varietal purity-tomato vines, Acme #2 pencils, and sour cherry-things we go bonkers for. An absolute darling for some roast chicken. Put a little chill on it (not cold, but cellar temp...

Domaine De La Cave Du Rocher Saumur Champigny 2010 (750ML)

Randy was the first to stumble upon this lovely Cabernet Franc from Loire’s Saumur-Champigny. He discovered it last year and we had one hell of a run with it so I was elated when my sales rep pulled the new vintage from his wine bag for me to taste. 2009 is a wonderful and ripe vintage for France and so this wine is all that it was last year, just deeper, plumper and with slightly softer tannin structure. Loaded with deep plummy flavors, hints of spice, dried violets and just a smattering of flinty...

Enjoy this wine from Loire Anjou-Saumur and is a French Still Wine 2009 vintage that is 750ml.

A rich, concentrated yet effortlessly elegant 100% Cabernet Franc from an up-and-coming winemaker in the Saumur area. Lively aromas of small red berries and violets show on the nose; the mouth is persistent and penetrating, with its earthy red/black fruits and light spice. Great balance, impressive length and very savory--a textbook example of Cabernet Franc that keeps you coming back for more. Owner/winemaker Mathieu Vallée purchased Chateau Yvonne in 2006; he is the brother of winemaker Gerald...

This 100% concentrated cabernet franc is way above its humble Loire origins. Look for some notes of pure blackberry and boysenberry fruit with hints of toast, cocoa, mineral and tobacco. Thierry Germain was an outsider in the Loire Valley when he left his viticultural Bordeaux roots. He now makes some of the most outstanding Saumur Champigny wines in the Appellation . [p.s. We forgive the pun on “step by step”

100% Cabernet Franc. Les Vignoles is located on a plateau overlooking the Loire with deep caves once inhabited by humans. The vines grow on a plateau bordered by south-facing cliffs over the Loire River. After crushing and total de-stemming, the grapes are put into temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, where the temperature rises to 83°F. The vats are pumped aver three times a day at the beginning of maceration. Les Vignoles is aged for 6-10 months in a quiet, dark, underground gallery at...

Currently the domaine consists of 15 hectares (36 acres) of vines planted in the communes of Saumur, Dampierre, Chacé, Varrains and Champigny.

A "green harvest" is done in July to shorten...
