Domaine des Cognettes IGP Val de Loire Cab a l'Ouest Cabernet Franc

Best known for their excellent Muscadets, the Perraud family of Domaine des Cognettes have been making wine in the region for nine generations. Champions of organic viticulture and minimal-intervention winemaking, they produce a superb range of wines from Melon Blanc, while their small but characterful red production is also well worth seeking out. Juicy and energetic, Cab a l’Ouest is a playful, easy-going take on Loire Cabernet Franc. Bursting with crunchy red fruit and leafy notes on the nose, it’s refreshing and joyful on the palate. Serve slightly chilled with charcuterie or light fare such as herbed poultry, lentil salad, or lamb cutlets with salsa verde.
