Chateau de Passavant Cabernet d'Anjou Rose
This Cabernet d'Anjou is a classic representation of the semi-dry wines from the Loire Valley. This delightful rose is a perfect aperitif or starter when served with fresh melon, and it also pairs beautifully with exotic cuisine.
The wine itself is a harmonious blend of sweetness and liveliness, featuring a tantalizing bouquet of small red fruits, such as raspberries and currants. Crafted from a combination of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, it boasts a certain density and subtle structure, while remaining a light and easy-drinking wine.
Chateau de Passavant
Château de Passavant was built by Foulques Nerra in the 12th Century, on a site that has long been fortified, overlooking the River Layon, whose slopes are well known for their great wines. The Château de Passavant is located South Anjou in the Haut-Layon area, where the river with the same name springs up, the vineyard stretches out over 55 hectares and has been organic since 1998 and biodynamic since 2011. Claire & Olivier Lecomte and François David have been managing the estate since 1993. They are the fourth generation of vine-growers managing the family vineyards.
