2022 Domaine Guiberteau Saumur Rouge, Loire Valley, France - 1.5L MAG
ABOUT THE WINE
This wine is made from 100% Cabernet Franc grown on organically farmed limestone-clay soils near Montreuil-Bellay. The 2022 vintage was marked by a balanced growing season, producing fruit with both ripeness and lift. Grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed, and fermented with native yeasts in concrete, then aged in older oak barrels to preserve varietal character and terroir expression.
The wine shows vibrant aromas of red cherry, crushed herbs, and flinty minerality. On the palate, it is lithe and energetic, with tension, clarity, and a subtle earthiness. The magnum format allows for slow evolution, making it ideal for cellaring or large-format service.
