Nina rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

I love Cabernet Franc!
Very stylish and elegant wine.
Garnet color in the glass.
Lovely aromas of raspberries, spices. Light tannins and smooth acidity. Medium bodied, medium finish with floral notes.

I had this wine with various meat terrines. It was great pairing!

Dan Trcka Wine Blogger rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

The 2009 Les Vignoles Terroirs Et Lieu Dieu De Loire Saumur Champigny, composed of 100% Cabernet Franc, is a light to medium, integrated wine, with appealing aromas of cherry, black cherry, dark chocolate and faint cedar. It has a nice acidity, subtle to refined tannins (decant for 30-60 min) and a medium finish. It is ready to drink now and should be for the next 3-5 years. Drink-how: this wine is meant to be drunk with food. My impression: NICE, 89 pts. Tasted Aug/12.
