Petit Thouars is one of our absolute favorite Chinon producers but we were unaware that they made a sparkling Cabernet Franc from Chinon too! Super crunchy on the nose with tons of red apple skin and a touch of cranberry. Way more floral on the palate with more red fruit and little pop of freshness on the light breezy finish. Perfect for just sipping but with enough stuffing to hold up to cheese and charcuterie, cold shrimp or salads.
