Domaine Cady, Pet Nat "Bio" Rosé Grolleau, Loire Valley, France NV
{organic} Grolleau
SOUR CHERRY & RASPBERRY, CANDIED PEACH, HERBACEOUS
The Cady family has been making wine at this estate since 1927, and today Alexandre Cady is the current generation running the show. Located in St. Aubin de Luigné at the heart of the Coteaux du Layon appellation, the 28 hectares of vines on south-facing slopes are farmed organically and grapes are hand harvested. This delightful and quite bubbly grolleau pet nat is bursting with juicy, tart red berries mingling with gentle citrus on the palate while the nose offers herbaceous intrigue and notes of candied peaches.
Serving Suggestion: Brown butter scallops w/ parmesan risotto. Latkes w/ cilantro-mint chutney. Tomato, peach, and burrata salad.
