Vignerons de Saumur 2023 Rosé “Les Pouches” In 1957, around forty winegrowers grouped together to establish this impressive cooperative set no the top of a hill in the village of Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg. Their Saumur Blanc “Les Pouches” has become an important staple for us here at Grape, and their various single vineyard Cabernet Franc driven cuvees are nothing short of astonishing for the price. Lovely pale pink color. Seducing nose with red ripe fruit aromas (strawberry) as well as hints of crystallized fruit and violets. Full-bodied and vinous on the palate, with plenty of fruity flavors. Some extended lees contact produces an aromatic and textured rose.
