The red wine Anjou AOC, vintage 2016 from the winery Domaine Clau de Nell has been rated in 2019 by Peter Moser with 92 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Cabernet Franc from the region Loire Valley in France.
Strong ruby, purple reflections, broad ochre rim. Intense animalistic nuances, a hint of saddle leather, red berry fruit, delicate hints of candied violets and with a subtle oak character. Juicy, fresh red cherry, lively acid structure, a mineral citrus touch, dark slate terroir nuances on the finish. It still needs two or three years to reach perfection.
