Varietal Cabernet Franc

Cabernet Franc is not simply an important grape varietal for the fact that it is one of the most widely grown strains of vine in the world, but also because it is a vital grape in the production of many of the finest wines the world has ever seen. For centuries in its native France, it has been a varietal synonymous with elegance and high quality, and has become a key fruit in the production of the Bordeaux and Bordeaux-style blended wines which have gone down in history thanks to their magnificent flavors, aromas and levels of aged complexity. However, Cabernet Franc is also a wine grape varietal for use in single variety, unblended wines, and has plenty to offer on its own. Most commonly, it is renowned for its wide bouquet, which often includes fascinating notes of tobacco, violets or bell pepper over a beautifully pale and decadent liquid.

France, often regarded as the heart of the wine world, boasts a rich history, diverse terroirs, and a captivating variety of grape varietals. From the renowned vineyards of Bordeaux to the picturesque landscapes of Burgundy, France offers a wine lover’s dream journey.

Region Loire Valley

Within France, the one region most closely associated with fine white and rosé wines is surely the Loire Valley. With over eight controlled appellations, and a relatively large expanse of land covering this wide valley, the Loire Valley is an ideal location for wineries wishing to produce large quantities of excellent quality vines for their wine production. Indeed, this region has been associated with excellent white wines for over a thousand years, with it once being the favorite wine region for the crowned heads of England, France and beyond. Today, it produces a wide range of white wines, and several rosé and red varieties also. It is also widely celebrated for being home to some of France's most lively and fruity sparkling crémant wines, which more than match those produced in nearby Champagne.

Appellation Sancerre

Sancerre, an illustrious appellation in the Loire Valley, France, is synonymous with world-class Sauvignon Blanc wines. What makes Sancerre unique is its distinctive terroir, characterized by chalky limestone soils, providing a mineral backbone to the wines, and the region's favorable continental climate. Sancerre Sauvignon Blancs are celebrated for their crisp acidity, vibrant citrus flavors, and pronounced minerality. The diverse soils and mesoclimate variations within Sancerre contribute to a spectrum of styles, from flinty and steely to more fruit-forward expressions. The appellation's commitment to single-varietal Sauvignon Blanc and minimal winemaking intervention highlights the grape's true character. Notable sub-appellations like Sancerre Rouge also showcase the region's potential for elegant Pinot Noir. Exploring Sancerre invites wine enthusiasts to appreciate the purity and authenticity of Sauvignon Blanc, offering a profound experience of the Loire Valley's winemaking tradition and the unique expression of Sancerre's exceptional terroir.

The 2019 La Demoiselle is an elegant yet ripe Pinot Noir that draws you in with its savory, spiced fruit and smoky bacon-like personality. Succulent yet long with delightful acidity, this is a rare Pinot planted on flint, the terroir's natural propensity to pull you along like a parent pulling the string on a toboggan. The finish is long, effortless and fragrant with tea leaf joining the array of aromas. Attractive now but it is still a pup and would be delightful in a few years when its savory development progresses.

Wine Advocate

The 2019 Sancerre La Demoiselle Rouge opens deep, fresh, pure and intense on the spicy nose that reveals ripe, dark fruit aromas intermixed with iodine notes. Silky, fresh and elegant on the palate, this is a full-bodied, fleshy and persistently vivacious red Sancerre with a lot of power, intensity and tannins. Still young but also quite oxidative. 13% stated alcohol. Diam cork. Tasted in December 2021.
