Guiberteau. Need we say more? Romain Guiberteau continues to outdo his immensely talented self with wines that belong in the same category as the best of Burgundy, Bordeaux, or anywhere. With most of his vines in Brézé, the single most celebrated terroir in Saumur, Romain is creating appealing, generous Cabernet Francs. Certainly they're some of the best the entire Loire Valley but also throughout the world. These wines are absolutely delicious, in high demand, and unfortunately in very small quantity.
Romain's Saumur Rouge is the perfect entry way to this rising producer's portfolio. This wine is made from 2ha of old vines planted in 1955 and 1957 spread over three parcels on limestone bedrock. It is all de-stemmed and fermented with indigenous yeasts followed by a short aging period in tank.
