Taste
A deep, rich garnet.
The aroma is of black fruits such as blackberries and black cherries simmered down to violet flowers, cedar and cypress trees, spices such as turmeric and cinnamon, mushrooms, earth and many other types of concentrated, rich and complex aromas.
It has a smooth mouthfeel. The dense, dense fruitiness is combined with a strong, clean acidity that leaves an impression. It is full-bodied and satisfying to drink, but has an elegant finish, with abundant tannins and a long aftertaste that lingers on with a flavor like black chocolate.
A red that allows you to discover new charms of the Loire Valley in France.

Organic history: Since 2005 (certified in 2008)
The vineyard is located in Anjou, in the scenic Loire region, known as the garden of France. The vineyards were purchased in 1860 and have been producing wine for generations. The region has a warm and mild Atlantic climate with little rain. Reducing pollution and producing in a healthy manner. In 2005, the winery made the switch, based on the belief that the only way to produce high-quality wine is to produce it while respecting the plants and the land. The winery strives to produce as healthily and naturally as possible, aiming for artisanal winemaking rather than standardized industrial winemaking.
