Cabernet franc is often blended with some combo of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, and carmenere, but it truly shines on its own in the Loire Valley. Here, cab franc’s wild and rustic flavors are celebrated, especially from traditional producers like Catherine and Pierre Breton. Their organic ‘Beaux Monts’ is classic Chinon, meaning a solid dose of spicy, meaty, and earthy flavors to go along with tart fruit.
Tastes like: Red plum, tomato, jalapeño, and chewing tobacco.
How to drink: Let it breathe for 30 minutes, and enjoy it alongside roast pork, BBQ chicken, or meatballs in tomato sauce.
