Score 92/100 · Drink 2021-2033, Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate, Oct 2021

The dark ruby colored 2015 Saumur Champigny Franc de Pied has a deep, clear, fresh and concentrated bouquet of perfectly ripe dark and red fruits intertwined with herbal, mineral and slightly toasty aromas. Made with 100% whole clusters and aged in oval oak foudres for 12 months. Silky, lush and intense on the palate, with a fine yet very complex and persistent finish carried by very fine minerals and tannins, this is an intensely fruity but fine, elegant and concentrated Cabernet Franc from a high-density planting of 10,000 ungrafted, biodynamically farmed vines per hectare rooting in calcareous sandy/loamy soils. Doubtlessly a great Cabernet Franc from Champigny.
