Retained as supporting identification copy; the structured facts and evidence links above are kept separate.
Sauvion Les Gravieres du Roy is an expressive, terroir-driven red from Saumur-Champigny, one of the Loire Valley's most celebrated appellations for Cabernet Franc. Vivid, aromatic, and beautifully structured, it delivers the classic character of the Loire in a wine that is both approachable and genuinely compelling.
Why You'll Love It
Saumur-Champigny produces some of France's most elegant red wines, and Cabernet Franc is the grape that defines them. Les Gravieres du Roy takes its name from the gravelly soils that give the wine its distinctive mineral backbone and aromatic lift. Sauvion, based at Chateau du Cleray, is a producer with a long track record of capturing Cabernet Franc's aromatic clarity and elegance, and this cuvee is a fine example of why the appellation deserves a place alongside the great reds of France.
Vineyard & Production
Grapes are sourced from clay and limestone sites with gravelly subsoils, hand-harvested to preserve primary fruit aromas. Fermentation is temperature-controlled to retain freshness, with moderate extraction and gentle elevage to achieve a plush, approachable texture while maintaining structural balance and mineral precision.
Tasting Notes
Bright ruby in colour with attractive purple flashes. The nose is aromatic and inviting, with red berries, raspberry, and wild strawberry alongside floral hints of violet. On the palate, juicy and generous with ripe red fruit flavours, soft tannins, a subtle mineral seam, and a smooth, lingering finish.
Perfect Pairings
A versatile food wine that pairs beautifully with roast and grilled red meats, duck, charcuterie, hearty stews, and aged cheeses. An excellent companion to classic French bistro dishes and equally at home on the everyday table.
The Blend
100% Cabernet Franc
Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
