This is one of those wines, and when I found out it was an inexpensive supermarket wine, I was stunned. So I tasted it again, from a bottle that had been open two days, and it was still lovely. So this is a hearty recommendation, if you have any love for Loire reds. I know they aren&#8217;t everyone&#8217;s cup of tea, but when they are good they are thrilling, life-enhancing wines. And this is stunning value for money.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Domaine des Ormes Saumur 2014 Loire. France\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n13% alcohol. This co-operative made wine (Vignerons de Saumur) is from Pascal and Fran\u00e7ois Champion. From one block, and mostly Cabernet Franc, on a clay, chalk, sandstone soil. Floral, aromatic black cherry, herb and forest floor nose. The concentrated palate shows sweet, textured, multilayered black fruits with green herb and pepper notes. Generous, a bit grippy, slightly sappy and beautifully balanced. Essence of Loire Cabernet Franc. 92\/100 (\u00a37.49 Co-op)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Occasionally I taste a wine with no idea of where it&#8217;s sourced from or how much it costs.
