Domaine L'Austral - VDF "Pourpre" Rouge 2021 MAGNUM

The Pourpre is only bottled in magnum and has a palate that is fluid, smooth, and relaxed, with fruit and freshness.

In the heart of Puy-Notre-Dame, Saumur, L’Austral has brought a new perspective with Australian influence to Loire Valley wines. The vines of the Amandiers parcel were planted in 1990. In 2016, the chance to start their own domaine occured through the lovely Françoise & Philippe Gourdon of Château Tour Grise, who allowed them to lease out and take over 4 ha of vines that have been grown biodynamically for 20 years. These vines are 45 years old.

A clear wine with notes of crushed red berries: raspberry, cranberry, and a hint of minerals. The palate is fluid, smooth, and relaxed, with fruit and freshness. 100% Cabernet Franc.
