Lovely fresh dark fruit aromas and flavors in this lovely and lively 70% Pinot d’Aunis/20% Pinot Noir/10% Cab Franc Loire rouge, nice acidity, medium-long finish.

This is very nice! 70% Pineau d'Aunis, 20% Pinot Noir, 10% Gamay. So light and easy to drink. The prominent fruit is red cherry with a bit of strawberry, add to it some leather and rosehip. Drinks very much like a Langhe Nebbiolo, at least to my amateur palate. This would have been terrific at the holiday gatherings. I'm guessing this cuvee is the little brother to the one recently posted by @Doug Powers

This is a fabulous wine! It’s light and fresh with a wonderful spice to it. It’s made with a super obscure grape (Pineau d’Aunis that is only grown in this little area) along with Cab Franc, Pinot noir and Gamay. We had it with a cheese board, and a salmon that I seared in oil that I fried lemons in. I added a dill gremolata. It was so refreshing and delicious.

Candied cherry, raspberry and hints of cinnamon and slight earthy notes. Beautiful wine.

Feb 16th, 2025Really love this. Very easy drinking. Red plum, cedar, some cinnamon. Not familiar with Pineau d’Aunis, nor the region. This is also natural/organic. Just great!!
