Olga Raffault, Chinon (Loire Valley, France) 2011

Nov 11, 2017

By Michael Franz

 Made entirely from Cabernet Franc, this wine is at a lovely stage of development right now, showing emerging complexities from time in bottle but still displaying nice primary fruit.  With lightly leafy aromas that are true to the variety and the appellation, along with subtle notes recalling dark berries, this is medium-bodied and very versatile at the table.
