Catherine et Pierre Breton Beaumont Chinon Cabernet Franc 2015

Trailblazers like Catherine andamp; Pierre Breton don't come around often, so it's important to appreciate their impacts while they're at the top of their game. In addition to making some of most compelling wines in the region,andnbsp;the husband andamp; wife duo also helped bring natural farming practices to the forefront of the international viticultural community. All their grapes are grown biodynamically, from their parcels in Bourgeuil to Chinon to Vouvray. Beaumont comes from vines planted on clay andamp; limestone, on the banks of the Vienne River. The '15 is a distinct expression of the sheer potential of the Loire Valley. A singular, honest wine that represents the generosity of its terroir. The nose onandnbsp;is brimming with red fruit and roses, while the palate is defined by blackberries, earth, and cleansing acidity. Try the Beaumont with a less meaty cut of steak, like skirt steak, or even just a bowl of green olives alongside.
