Winemaker Notes
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.
Pair this classically elegant wine with one of the area’s famed goat cheeses.
Professional Ratings
90 Wine Enthusiast
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.
