Although the Loire Valley is better known for its white wines, the reds can be equally stunning. The Cabernet Franc from Chinon is unparalleled anywhere else except for Bourgueil, a nearby appellation, and other red grapes, especially Pinot Noir and Cot (Malbec), express themselves in ways that might be unrecognizable to many wine drinkers. Grolleau, Pineau D’Aunis and Gamay from the Loire are all the rage in Paris’s wine bars and are catching on in San Francisco as well. If you really want to get the full story of what’s going on in the Loire Valley, join Pamela Busch for this exciting tasting seminar!
