The Society's Chinon 2025
Red Wine from France - Loire
Juicy, floral, and appetising Loire cabernet franc made for us by Maison Bougrier in the young, fresh 'brasserie' style we have been enjoying for a few vintages now. The 2025 vintage is looking like an outstanding year for this late-ripening varietal where the warm year has provided a wine of deep colour with aromas of fresh blackberry and redcurrants, white pepper spice and a lovely hint of dried herb with a juicy, medium-bodied finish.

Bougrier
Maison Bougrier is a successful family-owned négociant company in the Loire founded in 1885 now run by the fifth generation of Bougriers. The company has significant domaine and winery holdings in three major areas: Touraine, Anjou and Muscadet giving it full control over vineyards, grapes and production in a number of sites.
The Touraine area produces whites from both chenin blanc and sauvignon blanc grape varieties. Bougrier’s premium white from Touraine is made from 100% sauvignon blanc grapes and was originally labelled for us as The Society’s Touraine Sauvignon, now sold under the Les Hauts Lieux label.
Domaine Guénault is one of the family’s own properties and situated on steep slopes overlooking the Cher river, which gives the grapes excellent sun exposure. The sauvignon here is grassy and scented and a popular choice as an aperitif.
