Other Reviews....
The 2015 Saumur Champigny Le Bourg is coolish and fresh on the toasty nose. Generous, intense and salty on the palate, with fine tannins and lots of cherry aromas, this is a ripe, round and juicy Champigny with firm tannins that were still a bit dry when I tasted this wine (summer 2018) and needed some time to fully integrate. The wine should be on another level today. Drink 2023-2050.

Charly Foucault’s farewell. An unbelievably complex Cabernet Franc. An incredibly beautiful nose of spice, cigar box, licorice, kirsch, fresh cherry and berry in the mouth, seamless and supple. An amazingly long finish. There’s something deep and profound here. Drink 2022-2050.

A complex, dense aromatic framework displays elements of grilled hazelnuts, liquorice, violets and a hint of iris. The palate is a tad monolithic, with an impressive tannic structure and a dense finish, with that characteristic minty freshness. A superb, youthful wine that will stay the distance. Drink 2030-2055.
