{"product_id":"germain-jeanne-saumur-champigny-bavardages-rouge","title":"Jeanne Germain Saumur-Champigny Bavardages Rouge","description":"Bavardages is a cuvée from Domaine Jeanne Germain, a tiny 1.7-hectare estate in the Saumur-Champigny appellation of the Loire Valley, run by Jeanne Germain, sister of Thierry Germain of the renowned Domaine des Roches Neuves. Made from 100% Cabernet Franc, as required by the Saumur-Champigny appellation rules, the wine reflects Jeanne's hands-on, nature-focused approach, which includes using draft horses to plough parts of the vineyard rather than tractors. Saumur-Champigny is prized in the Loire for producing fresh, aromatic Cabernet Franc with notes of red fruit, violet, and a distinctive gravelly minerality drawn from the region's tuffeau limestone soils. Expect raspberry, blackcurrant leaf, and a light peppery spice on a bright, medium-bodied palate. Pair with roast chicken, charcuterie, or a lightly chilled summer dish. The 2021 vintage brings freshness and precision to this small-production Loire red.\n\u003cdiv class=\"fiche-enrichie\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"fiche-caracteristiques\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSAUMUR CHAMPIGNY\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEstate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGERMAIN Jeanne\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLoire, Anjou-Saumur\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCabernet Franc\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"fiche-faq\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould this wine be decanted?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e20 to 30 minutes of aeration in a decanter is recommended for red wines, especially younger vintages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long can this wine be cellared?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wine has an estimated cellaring potential of 3 to 8 years under good storage conditions (cellar at a stable 12-14 °C).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat food pairs well with this wine?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt pairs particularly well with: roast chicken, charcuterie.
