Carte Turquoise Crémant de la Loire (NV)
Domaine des Baumard
Chenin Blanc & Cabernet Franc
Loire Valley, France
This is the first of a series of tasting notes from a Loire Valley focused tasting I took part in with some other industry folks recently. Enjoy!
Appearance: Clear, pale to medium-light yellow color.
Nose: Clean, grassy, herbal aromatics up front. Green pepper - definitely indicative of the Cabernet Franc.
Palate: Dry, medium acidity, medium body, and medium-light mousse. More green pepper and vegetal flavors balanced with some grapefruit/citrus and creamy, yeasty textures.
