Anjou: The red wines of the Loire are singular in their characteristics. Late ripening due to the northern location and proximity to the ocean. The Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards are located where the soil's high iron content contributes to the rich structure, flavor and longevity of the wines.
Cepage: Cabernet Franc
About the Producer: Domaine Chupin was established during the reign of Napoleon III and are the eighth generation to cultivate this vineyard. It is a family vineyard with vines having a median age of 35 years, accounting for much of the depth and complexity of the wine. The grapes are vinified according to traditional methods.
Tasting Notes: Like its sisters in Chinon and Bourgueil, this wine wears a lovely deep ruby color with forward aromas of ripe fruits combined with the signature herbaceousness of northern cabernets -harmoniously - to exhibit a well-balanced fruited flavor with round tannins.
Recommended Food Pairings: This is an exceptionally versatile table wine. Enjoy lightly chilled with Red meats, potages, and cheeses.
