Raer Alliance Les Elettes Rouges Saumur Champigny 2021 is a red that quickly earns its place as a go to bottle, offering balance, character, and easy enjoyment in equal measure. Created through RAER’s collaboration with Vignobles Sébastien Fricker, this wine is made from 30 year old Cabernet Franc vines grown in the highly regarded Saumur Champigny appellation in the Loire Valley. The result is a wine that reflects both the quality of its origin and the care taken in its production.
There is a natural approachability here that makes it incredibly versatile. Soft tannins and bright fruit lead the way, supported by a smooth structure that feels considered without ever becoming heavy. It is the kind of red that works just as well poured casually at the end of the day as it does shared around the table with friends. There is depth, but it never demands too much of the drinker, making it a reliable and enjoyable choice time and time again.
Now available beyond its previous exclusivity in France, Les Elettes Rouges brings a genuine expression of Loire Valley Cabernet Franc to a wider audience. It pairs effortlessly with relaxed, informal dining, particularly tapas or a well put together cheese board. Chèvre highlights its freshness, while Brie and Camembert complement its softer edges.
