RVF Award: Ranked among the best 2010 reds from the Loire Valley
The Champ aux Loups cuvée is a red wine that offers aromas of red fruit and violets, accompanied by a subtle oakiness that adds complexity. The palate is powerful and generous, delighting the palate with its structure and the sensation of biting into the fruits detected on the nose. A beautifully crafted Anjou Villages!
