2015 Saumur Champigny Terres Chaudes

The biodynamic 2015 Saumur Champigny Terres Chaudes offers an intense and peppery bouquet of dark ripe berries along with aromas of toasted meat, flowers such as violets and even ivy, which gives a coolish component that fits perfectly with the terroir aromas. On the palate, this is a well-concentrated, tight, fresh and structured Cabernet Franc with lots of cassis flavors. Very elegant, fresh and long on the clear and mineral-structured finish. Still young but promising.
