Guiberteau Saumur Rouge Les Chapaudaises 2023 070226CHILL fermented spontaneously with partial whole-clusterA single vineyard Saumur from cult Loire producer Romain Guiberteau. 'Les Chapaudaises' is a parcel of Cabernet Franc on clay limestone near Le Puy Notre Dame, and it gives one of his more open, perfumed and fruit forward reds a little more approachable young than the firmer Les Arboises. Farmed organically and made with native yeasts and minimal intervention, it carries the chalky tension and purity that make Guiberteau a reference for serious Saumur
