Cave De Saumur Les Pouches 2022

750 mL 

Cave de Saumur is an exemplary coöperative that has achieved prominence through hard fought efforts to distinguish themselves from other collective wineries, starting with the fact that it was the very first wine coöperative in the Loire Valley. Far from the typical coöperatives that haphazardly tend their vineyards for high yields of mediocre bulk wine, Cave de Saumur is instead a humming hive whose 160 like-minded families tend their vines with great care in order to produce quality wines expressive of both their varietal and their place of origin. The average holding is 10 hectares.

Stretching from Anjou to Touraine, Saumur is synonymous with Chenin Blanc whites and Cabernet Franc reds that enable Cave de Saumur to focus on these two varietal wines, resulting in wines that are typical of the appellation and, in some cases, of specific sites, the so-called Lieu dit releases that zoom in on particularly noteworthy terroir ranging from Saumur Blanc to Saumur Champigny.
