respecting the traditional production and rest times

An expertly crafted vintage that debuted in 2000

There is licorice in the infusion obtained by a cold process designed to capture the most volatile

Mineral-driven finish with a slight grip and persistent salinity

and soft tannin with a hint of earthiness on the palate

Francois Cazin ‘Le Petit Chambord’ Cheverny Rouge, 2022 12 year respecting the traditional production andThis is one of the BIG DOGS of the Loire. Enjoy it with roasted chicken thighs in a light yogurt sauce. 66% Pinot Noir, 33% Gamay. Right away you notice the color it is beautifully saturated in the glass. The aromas are mellow but complex with an underlying intensity that pulls through the long finish, which include soft tannins that do not quit. This wine gets better after being open for a bit and is a favorite.
