La Cave d'Augustin Florent Rosé Cabernet d'Anjou 2020 (6x 750mL), Loire

Description:

Anjou is a wine region around the French city of Angers, in the western Loire Valley. It produces red, rosé and white wines in a range of styles: dry, sweet, still and sparkling.

The wines of the district's generic Anjou appellation are not particularly well known or prestigious. But within the zone there are several noteworthy subregional AOPs. Examples include the fragrant Cabernet Franc of Saumur, the crisp Chenin Blanc of Savennières and the sweet white nectars of Côteaux du Layon.

Anjou AOP

The generic, district-wide Anjou appellation covers red, white and sparkling wines (but not still rosés, which are taken care of by the rosé-specific 'Rosé d'Anjou' and 'Cabernet d'Anjou' appellations). Anjou Rouge is made predominantly from the Cabernet grapes, with a little help from Gamay and Pineau d'Aunis. Anjou Blanc is typically based on Chenin Blanc, often with a splash (up to 20 percent) of Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay.
