Overview
For Cabernet Franc fans, there can be nothing more enticing than spending two full days sampling the delights of three of the most important red wine regions of The Loire.
Marvel at how the same grape is vinified into distinctive styles, and is marked by the soil type it is grown in, whilst retaining its signature expression throughout.
Learn how winemakers in each appellation handle their crops with equal care, yet apply differing methods depending on the needs of their specific vineyard.
Discover how varying approaches are applied to the wines from one region to the next, and how the vignerons own personal preference also leaves its stamp on the finished wine.
Having spent two days exploring these three incredible regions, you shall fully understand the differences in how various distinct Cabernet Franc styles are created; whilst also having developed a full grasp on the commonalities that tie them together.
