This proprietary blend, crafted by the esteemed Chateau de Fosse Seche, showcases the true mastery of winemaking and the unique terroir of the Saumur region.

In the glass, this wine unveils a deep, alluring red hue that hints at its intensity and richness. The nose is immediately greeted by an intoxicating bouquet of violets and licorice, layered with the essence of perfectly ripe cherries, cranberries, black and red currants, and blackberries. It is a symphony of floral and fruity notes that dance harmoniously, creating a truly captivating aromatic profile.

Crafted predominantly from Cabernet Franc, with a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine showcases the incredible potential of these varietals in the Saumur region. The maceration process, lasting between three to 15 days, and the aging in concrete for 14 months, contribute to the wine's impeccable balance and depth of flavor.
