Valençay Rouge

Red Valençay wine falls into a wider Valençay appellation that also includes white and rosé wines. The region is located in the Indre and Loir-et-Cher departments of central Loire. Red wines are made from Gamay, Pinot Noir, and Cot (a local name for Malbec).

The final character of these wines will depend on the grape composition. They are typically light red to garnet with an aroma reminiscent of red berries, often complemented by spicy and violet nuances. On the palate, they are smooth and display a good balance of freshness and ripe tannins.
