The Legrand family has been crafting wine in Saumur since the 17th century and was among the pioneering producers of Saumur-Champigny. Today, Clotilde Legrand carries on the family's legacy, combining traditional winemaking with a deep respect for terroir and vintage expression. The estate's Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc vineyards, many planted on prized limestone and chalk soils and averaging 45 years of age, produce wines of remarkable freshness, structure, and longevity. Long aging in the family's historic tuffeau limestone cellars—where cool, constant temperatures provide ideal maturation conditions—helps shape wines that are equally enjoyable in their youth and capable of graceful development in the cellar. This 100% Cabernet Franc is fermented in stainless steel without added sulfur and bottled unfiltered, preserving the purity and vibrancy of the fruit. Medium-bodied and intensely aromatic, it offers generous notes of fresh cherry and raspberry framed by soft, supple tannins. Approachable and expressive, this is a deliciously drinkable Saumur-Champigny that showcases the bright, energetic side of Loire Valley Cabernet Franc.
