    Description of Saumur Rouge

    Estate

    Domaine Guiberteau is a family-owned estate well-known in the Saumurois area for its commitment to organic farming and traditional expertise. Located in the heart of the Loire Valley, the estate showcases local grape varieties producing wines that are authentic and true to their terroir.

    Vineyard

    Located in the Saumurois region, the vineyard benefits from a temperate oceanic climate and clay-limestone soils ideal for cultivating Cabernet Franc, the emblematic grape of the Saumur appellation. Organic viticulture is practiced to respect the environment and enhance vineyard biodiversity.

    Wine

    This 2020 Saumur red features a frank and clear expression of Cabernet in an elegant and approachable style. The wine is characterized by freshness, red fruit aromas and a slight spicy note typical of the varietal. It appeals to enthusiasts seeking a balanced and supple organic Loire wine.

    Vintage

    The 2020 vintage, marked by a wet spring followed by a hot and dry summer, allowed for good ripening of the grapes. This climatic context favored aromatic concentration while maintaining good acidity, providing balance and liveliness to the wine.

    Vinification & Aging

    The vinification follows traditional methods with maceration in stainless steel tanks allowing controlled extraction of aromas and tannins. Aging is conducted in stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and purity, highlighting the Cabernet's typicality in this terroir.
