Seemingly light at first, this Cabernet-Franc from the Loire develops a fine volume on the palate. More info

Les Motelles exudes aromas of red fruit, slightly kirsch cherries, peppers and floral notes; the ageing is done discretely. On the palate, we discover a fine volume, fruity flavours and supple substance thanks to fine tannins and a fairly marked but very pleasant acidity. This wine sometimes has a slight reduction at the opening, so it is better to decant or at least let it air for several minutes or even an hour before tasting. This wine goes well with red and grilled meat.

Saumur Les Motelles Guiberteau (Domaine) serve at a temperature of 16°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Boudin noir aux pommes, Poêlée de boeuf aux légumes, Rôti de veau aux girolles.
