It is little known, but there is also a Sancerre AOC for red wines. These are made from 100% Pinot Noir. Some of these wines are excellent to great, and here we are tasting one from the excellent 2014 vintage.

Domaine Belargus is a young winery on the Loire, founded in 2018. It produces only Chenin Blanc at the highest level and the new vintage is now available. As a reference for Chenin Blanc, there is a Saumur Brézé from Domaine Guiberteau. Let's taste it.

More and more Cabernet Franc is being cultivated in Tuscany. Here is a comparison with Cabernet Franc from the Loire.

This time: Loire and Rhone.

Here we have two bottles with Cabernet Franc, one is a blend with Shiraz and one is pure.

This time there is wine from Baden, Palatinate and Loire.

Wines are from Alphone Mellot, Francois Villard, Charles Joguet, Bartolo Mascarello and Conterno-Fantino.

This time: One of the best German sparklings, two amazing Rieslings, something from a new winery at the Loire and Lopez de Heredia in 3 variants.

One of the best Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire.

The Loire wine region is very dynamic and producers a lot of interesting and great wine. The red wines of the Loire from Cabernet Franc can now be drunk young, but improve over many years of maturity.

Various white wines from Germany and Loire were the accompaniment to a pulpo salad.
