2015 Prestige. Perfect wine for the price. Shows the vintage with lush red fruit (raspberry, some cherry, a touch of something darker), but a nice smoky savoriness on the back end. Very bright acidity and medium tannin. Great weekday dinner wine. — 5 days ago

Perfumed Chinon wafting out of the glass - brisk on the palate with the right amount of tannins. Drank the '15 out of a 375. Perfect regular, casual half bottle. — 6 days ago

Excellent Cabernet Franc from Saumur. High toned with great cherry and green pepper. Not too green, some great minerality and good acid keeps this nice. — 6 days ago

Cabmac cabfranc = crunchtown madness. So satisfying ❤️

Typical reduction when first opened, but I really liked it here. It was like drinking pure black olives - briny and sweet. Took a few hours, but the wine finally revealed its juicy red fruit core. Herbal, but not in any way green, especially in the context of the vintage and variety. Some intriguing tabacco notes. Light, refreshingly tart, and too easy to drink. This is good juice!

Well gosh...if this isn’t just lovely. This is exactly what I adore about Cab Franc from the Loire. The bouquet is a delight to behold with pretty red fruits and crushed gravel. Lots of texture here with fine tannins. I want more of this in my life. — 9 days ago

Wow. Amazing on day 2 (day 1 was dark red fruit and a lot of red bell pepper) with a nose that was like a raft of strawberry, raspberry and a bit of boysenberry with more subtle tones of bell pepper, tobacco and earth. No noticeable wood, ample acidity but not austere. Hits a sweet spot for Cab Franc. For history, quality, QPR - will take this over Rougeard any day. — 24 days ago
