A bird incorporated on the label, and the name Chanteleuserie means a 'place where the larks sing', located outside of the village of Benais, in Touraine, Loire Valley. Deep purple pronounced aromas of floral and black fruits. On the palate blackberry and blueberry flavors with bell pepper and tomato leaf notes. Medium+ tannins with lively acidity on a medium length finish. Great value, can even improve in bottle in next few years, but good now!

Fabulous little cab franc, perfect balanced brightness and varietal character. I love this style of Cab Franc, ripened, but not ripe.

Pleasant, smooth, and fruit forward. Very clean and precise. Tasted like Beaujolais, in a good way. Lacked a bit of acidity and brightness, which I suspect may be due more to bottle handling than the wine production itself. Will try again.

Glorious. But I don’t want anyone to find out since it is priced perfectly.

Equal parts smoky & spicy red fruit. QPR superhero with nice mineral & structural complexity.
