Sanzay Saumur-Champigny VV 22

The Saumur-Champigny Vieilles Vignes spends a year in big barrels, and so the 2022 is on offer. It’s darker and more serious – the old vines bring concentration and depth of flavor. This lasts far longer on the palate, with more supporting tannin. The nose is dried roses and wild cherries; the mouth is dark and rugged with earthy notes and a delicious saline finish. Drink this with pizza, and don’t be afraid to get the spicy one.
