Region and Appellation Information

Region – Loire

The Loire is France's longest river, running almost 400km from the Massif Central westwards to the Atlantic, and gives its name to one of the country's most diverse wine regions. Spanning some 57,000 hectares across Loire-Atlantique, Anjou-Saumur, Touraine, and the Centre, it produces the full range of styles - fresh, light whites from Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc, elegant reds and rosés from Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, and Gamay, plus sweet and sparkling wines. Its western vineyards enjoy a maritime Atlantic climate, while the more easterly Centre is cooler and continental, and its chalky limestone soils help the wines retain their signature freshness and acidity. Home to 69 appellations, including the famous Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, the Loire offers something to please every palate.

Appellation – Cabernet d'Anjou

A medium-sweet rosé appellation in the Anjou district of the Loire Valley, made from Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Distinguished from the drier Rosé d'Anjou by its higher residual sugar, it is elegant and beautifully balanced, the sweetness offset by the fresh acidity typical of the Loire. Expect delicate aromas of red fruits such as strawberry, raspberry, and redcurrant, with a supple, fruity palate. Surprisingly age-worthy for a rosé, it makes a versatile partner for aperitifs, spicy dishes, and desserts.
