The 2023 Domaine Sauveroy Victoire is an expressive Cabernet Franc from Anjou-Villages in the Loire Valley. Grown on gravel-rich soils over weathered sandstone-schist, it shows blackcurrant, raspberry and Morello cherry alongside delicate florals, fresh herbs and subtle spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied, juicy and generous, with vibrant dark and red berry fruit supported by supple, finely structured tannins. Gentle maceration is followed by 12 months of maturation in amphorae, bringing harmony and texture while preserving freshness and fruit purity. Herbal and mineral notes add complexity through a refined, persistent finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Cabernet Franc drinkers looking for a fresh, refined and distinctive expression of Anjou. Amphora maturation gives the wine silky texture while allowing its vibrant fruit and savoury character to shine. Enjoy now or cellar for further development. Ideal with grilled lamb, roast pork, duck, mushroom dishes, charcuterie or semi-hard cheeses.
