The flinty soils of the Loire Valley appellation of Valençay are known for giving their wines a finesse, perhaps even a chalkiness. This cuvée is known as “Les Griottes” or ‘the cherries’ as its gentle flavor and character has notes of red fruits (cherry, blackcurrant), with a hint of spices in the finish. Farmed sustainably and fermented with indigenous yeasts. You might try one of the area’s famed goat cheeses to pair with this classically elegant wine.
Wine Enthusiast: 90 Points
The Loire is famous for producing wines with an herbal and fruity quality, and this bottle captures that profile in a 35% Gamay, 35% Malbec and 30% Pinot Noir blend. Ruby in color, the wine has a savory nose of red raspberry, black cherry, dried field grass, sage brush and violet blossom. On the palate, just-ripened red fruit is at the lead of the taste with slightly grippy tannins providing thrust on the finish, laced with pleasing chalk and limestone.
