Delicious 100% cabernet franc from Chinon in the Loire Valley in France. If you like reds with lots of character but in a lighter style then Chinon is your friend. Grosbois is the producer and this cuvee, Cuisine de ma Mere, is inspired by his mother's cooking. Apt because this is a gastronomic wine par excellence. Cab franc's crunchy acidity makes it the perfect foil to fatty dishes like cassoulet, sausages and pork chops.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Bright crunchy raspberries and blackberries with earthy leather notes, a little tannic bite and a refreshing rocky finish.
