Arnaud Lambert, a vigneron dedicated to expressing the unique terroirs of the Loire Valley, focuses on organic and biodynamic practices to produce wines that reflect the character of their origins. The 'Les Terres Rouges' Saumur-Champigny is a testament to this philosophy, offering a pure expression of Cabernet Franc from the region.
- WINEMAKER: Arnaud Lambert
- FARMING: Certified organic
- VARIETY: 100% Cabernet Franc
- TERROIR: Sourced from 45-year-old vines situated on south-facing slopes in Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg, within the Saumur-Champigny appellation. The vineyards are characterized by clay-limestone soils, contributing to the wine's structure and minerality.
- VINIFICATION: Hand-harvested grapes undergo fermentation with native yeasts in stainless steel tanks, emphasizing purity and varietal expression.
- AGING: Aged for six months in concrete tanks to preserve freshness and enhance the wine's natural vibrancy.
- TASTING NOTES: This Saumur-Champigny displays aromas of red berries, blackcurrant, and subtle floral notes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with flavors of ripe cherry, raspberry, and a hint of spice, supported by fine tannins and balanced acidity, leading to a smooth, mineral-driven finish.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: Pairs well with grilled meats, roasted poultry, charcuterie, and soft cheeses. Its versatility makes it suitable for a variety of dishes, from casual fare to more refined cuisine.
