I see few Touraines locally, but it’s the most important of the Loire wine regions and is a catch all appellation, taking in Bourgueil, Chinona and Vouvray among others. This one’s a cabernet franc from Le Rocher des Violettes. It’s an honourable effort, with a lighter bodied note and tobacco and raspberry overtones.
