Crémant de Loire

Medium

Cork

Rosé

UK retailer Laithwaites and London's famous botanical institute Kew Gardens have a collaboration series which puts lesser-known grape varieties in the spotlight. This Crémant de Loire rosé is a blend of Cabernet Franc and the little-known Grolleau Gris, made by large Loire producer Lacheteau. It's downright yummy. It's very pale pink in colour, and it smells subtly of apple skins and pear. It's really moreish and succulent, with lots of nice sweet fruit up front, a plump mouthfeel, and a cherry pastry frothy finish. Extremely drinkable and unquestionably summery.
