2009 Val de Loire - Reserve Des Vignerans - Saumur Champigny

This was another recommendation from the salesman at Total Wine. It was very, very dry and not quite as smooth as the previous post (Olema). Not as fruity either. More tanins, too. I would say that we should not have had this bottle after the bottle of Olema. That wine was way better than this one and was well worth the five extra dollars (this bottle was $14.00). Not bad, just not great.
