🏰 The 2022 Domaine Guiberteau Saumur "Les Moulins" is a vibrant expression of Loire Valley Cabernet Franc, known for its clarity, freshness, and refined character. This wine is sourced from 100% Cabernet Franc grapes from three parcels of old vines on silty and sandy topsoils over limestone. The winemaking involves destemming, natural fermentation in concrete, and 12 months aging in large barrels. Tasting notes describe it as beautifully red-fruited, with notes of bramble berries, light green herbs, flinty minerality, and a silky smooth mouthfeel. The domaine is associated with careful vineyard work and a respectful approach to the terroir, allowing the character of the site to come through in the wines. It's a wine that offers balance, precision, and a sense of place. 【Known for clarity, freshness, and refined character, reflecting a respectful approach to terroir】
