"La Flamboyante" cuvée from Domaine des Coutures is a red Saumur-Champigny made from 100% Cabernet Franc, carefully crafted on the clay-limestone soils of the Côte Saumuroise, overlooking the Loire River. This wine represents the purest expression of the grape variety, grown using sustainable farming practices and currently undergoing conversion to organic agriculture.
Produced using traditional methods, the grapes are harvested by hand. From a vineyard managed with sustainable practices, this cuvée is aged in barrels on fine lees and fermented in oak casks.
With a deep garnet color, this red Saumur offers a refined nose of very ripe black fruits. Complex and rounded on the palate, it pairs beautifully with elegant, refined dishes.
Food and wine pairing: Pairs perfectly with red meats, poultry, lamb, or mild cheeses.
Year: 2022

The vineyard is located on the controlled appellation of origin "Saumur-Champigny", and enjoys a generous and exceptional sunshine, due to its particular geographical location, being protected by the forest of Fontevraud. The land, vineyard and wine have been the pillars of the family for 6 generations.

The soil is composed of a warm clay-limestone soil, on the tuffeau rock, absorbing the winter precipitation, restoring them during the summer.
The main grape variety of the vineyard is cabernet franc.
