Sacred Thirst tasting. Another double plus from today. Two from this producer. Dominique likes this vintage. Only uses concrete on this from start to finish. Tasty and a deal.

Aromatically somewhat muted, but still a quite nice Saumur cab franc. Very nice mouthfeel. Acids bit less than I was hoping. Everything quite integrated. Probably slightly lower than expectations but still a nice wine.

Phenomenal. A deep, concentrated cab franc with excellent structure. Drinks really well now with air, has at least 7+ years of evolution to go. Dark berries, mulberries and blackberries, lavender, cocoa, classic Loire bell pepper, leather, wet rock. Superb.

Dark, lacquered fruits. Soft, but with adequate acid. I'd guess this is what purple would taste like, if you could taste color.
