The 2015 Saumur-Champigny is a wonderfil showing from Domaine de la Paleine. This traditional style of Cabernet Franc opens with aromas of raspberry and wild berries which are woven together with smoke, ash, floral and cracked pepper. On the palate this is medium-bodied with fine tanninsalong with excelent balance and focus. Flavors of raspberries and smoking ash continue to carry on through the vibrant fnish. While this is impressive now, allowing it another 2-3 years in bottle will certinaly be worth it. (Best 2018-2025) - January, 2017 (JD)
