New grape (Pineau d'Aunis) and a new wine, really cool stuff. A cousin of Cabernet Franc, the traits are similar but the wine is more feminine, more transparent to the terroir. Red cherries, crushed rocks, tobacco leaf, cracked white pepper, tense minerality, fresh acidity a medium grain tannin. #loire #PineaudAunis
