Olga Raffault is a name to remember if you’re a fan of old school, classic Loire valley Cabernet Franc. Indeed, you very likely already know the name, as this estate is famous for spectacularly earthy, functionally immortal Cabernet Franc that sets the standard to which other winemakers in Chinon aspire. Under the direction of Olga’s granddaughter Sylvie and her husband Eric De la Vigerie, the tradition remains strong, and even their elegant and fine-grained rose is unmistakable as anything but Cabernet Franc. The nose is of wild strawberry, grapefruit, tayberry, lime zest, granite, white pepper, rose petal and Vietnamese cinnamon. The palate has red berry fruit on full blast, raspberry, strawberry, Maraschino cherry, and rosewater. Texturally, this wine is buoyant, juicy, and crisp, with energetic acidity to reach every last corner of the palate. The finish lingers delicately, with orange zest and white pepper to keep company with lingering raspberry notes. This is a delicious and versatile wine for roast pork, salmon, and sourdough picnic sandwiches, and a brilliant companion to the estate’s famous red wines.
