Slurp Wines NR
David Ledoux spent twenty years as an engineer in the car industry before swapping it all for a vineyard in Bourgueil, in the Loire Valley. Les Compagnons is his easy-going red, made from younger Cabernet Franc vines and kept in steel tanks so the fruit stays front and centre. Think raspberries and wild berries, with a little cherry on the finish. Soft, juicy and light on its feet, there's no heavy oak getting in the way. Serve it slightly chilled on a warm evening, or pour it with a Sunday roast chicken.
