Beautiful 2019 Chinon from one of Loire's premier producers!
Nearly forty years ago, the Saget family set out on a mission to make Saget La Perrière a modern, family-run company specialising in wines from the Loire. Jean-Louis provided the original impetus and his sons Arnaud and Laurent Saget now embody these values, passionately portraying their vision of a company recognised for the quality of its wines and the people who run it every day.
This Loire Valley red is 100% Cabernet Franc selected from two producers who reserve the production of their best plots every year for this wine. Winemaker of Guy Saget Estates, Bruno Mineur, then selects the best of the estate grown grapes for blending and maturing. The name "Marie de Beauregard" is homage to the first owner of the estate's wife.
On the eye, a garnet red wine with intense ruby tints. The nose is powerful, peonies mingle with slightly roasted notes. The palate is round and delicious, with vanilla and spices in the foreground followed by the powerful entrance of blackberries and blueberries. It should get even more balanced over time.
