Located in the heart of Saumur-Champigny, perched high above the Loire River just to the west of Chinon, Chateau de Chaintres has been in the hands of the de Tigny family since 1938; it is today run by Elisabeth de Tigny Mourot. The vineyard comprises some fifty acres, planted to a mix of Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc. “Les Sables” is the estate’s primary cuvee of Cabernet Franc; remarkably fresh, with fully ripe, snappy red fruits and beautifully integrated tannins, it is a testament to this appellation’s capacity for producing elegant Cabernet Franc.
