Domaine de la Commanderie Chinon Cuvee Medievale 2018
Domaine de la Commanderie is a small winery in the heart of the Loire. Chinon is undoubtedly the best appellation for growing Cabernet Franc, the symbol of the region. The vineyards are located on the slopes of the r. Vienne, a left tributary of the r. Loire. The soils are sandy and gravelly, with day and night temperature differences that help preserve the fresh and fruity character of the wines.
Cuvée Medieval 2018 is 100% Cabernet Franc from old vines, with a short maceration to preserve the fruit character of the wine. The owner and winemaker is Philippe Pan, who puts all his skill and passion to produce his exceptional and quality wines, capturing the spirit of the terroir.
The wine pairs wonderfully with cooked and cured meats, barbecue, white meats.

Loire Valley
This is a long and diverse region in western France, adjacent to the Loire River, which produces interesting wines - from charming and fruity to rich and long-lasting. A representative of the red varieties here is Cabernet Franc and the wines from Bougainville and Chinon are excellent, but in fact the white varieties are the specifics of the Loire. The most common are Chenin Blanc (Vouvray), Melon de Bourgogne (Muscadet) and Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre, Pouilly Fumé). Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé have come out of the shadows of their region and can be said to be well known around the world - the former with the typical mineral-herbal character of the wines, and the latter with the greater complexity of the body and aroma due to contact with oak, although the variety is the same - Sauvignon Blanc.

Its varietal wines are light to medium bodied and often show vegetal characteristics, in particular green bell peppers.
