A wine rooted in the Saumur terroir

Located in the Loire Valley, the Saumur appellation is renowned for its distinctive limestone-rich landscape, including the region's characteristic tuffeau rock. The combination of clay and limestone soils contributes to the identity of this historic wine-producing area.

Clin d'Œil is made from 100% Cabernet Franc, a grape variety widely associated with Loire Valley red wines. Its fruity character and subtle spicy nuances give the wine an appealing personality.

Careful winemaking

The grapes undergo complete destemming before a 10-day maceration. Winemaking takes place in temperature-controlled vats, allowing the process to be carefully managed while developing the wine's aromatic profile and structure.

Tasting notes

In the glass, Clin d'Œil reveals an attractive deep ruby-red colour. The nose is characterised by fruity aromas with pleasant spicy undertones. On the palate, the wine offers a balanced structure, supported by present yet rounded tannins. Its smooth, velvety texture makes for an enjoyable and accessible tasting experience.

Food pairing suggestions

This Saumur Rouge is a versatile partner for a variety of dishes. Enjoy it alongside grilled beef, roasted chicken, traditional charcuterie or hard cheeses. Its fruity profile also makes it a suitable accompaniment to flavourful dishes inspired by oriental cuisine.

For optimal enjoyment, serve at around 16°C.
