Château du Petit Thouars 2003

Château du Petit Thouars will be something of a revelation if you’ve yet to taste a great Loire Valley red. With soft, succulent fruit, it’s a wine you can savour with lunch (and you’ll still enjoy your afternoon!).

“Loire Cabernet Franc is an ideal Summer red” The Observer

At their picturesque château, the du Petit Thouars family produce reds of consistant top quality. Our Loire buyer Sam Caporn explains: “Great reds like this seldom leave the Loire. It’s gorgeously soft and fruity with serious depth. Think Cru Beaujolais.”

The sun-drenched 2003 harvest gives this pure Loire Cabernet Franc ripe, succulent redcurrant and cherry flavours and gorgeous softness. Enjoy alfresco or serve with light game dishes. Delicious!”
