Destemmed grapes undergo three weeks of maceration before a wild yeast fermentation in concrete and tapering wooden vats, followed by 9 to 12 months of lees aging to produce a velvety palate of red cherries, a touch of red pepper, and cleansing acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLes Vins de la Gabare is a dedicated collaboration between importer Les Caves de Pyrene and a select group of local grape growers in the regions surrounding Anjou and Nantes. Named after the traditional flat-bottomed barges historically seen sailing along the Loire river, the project aims to produce authentic, accessible wines that faithfully reflect their terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy focusing on single-parcel sites rich in clay and flint soils, the growers harvest hand-picked fruit at optimal ripeness using small crates to prevent any damage. In the cellar, the winemaking follows a hands-off approach with zero added sulphur, no filtration, and no fining, allowing the honest character of the Loire Valley to shine through in every bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Les Vins de la Gabare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62277977866627,"sku":"10326","price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0017\/1763\/3088\/files\/image_1_580922d6-0973-4fb4-91fb-4ca5f99d96da.png?v=1785586249","url":"https:\/\/indiebeer.co.uk\/products\/les-vins-de-la-gabare-les-amandiers-cabernet-franc-2023-wine-750ml-12-5","provider":"indiebeer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
