Lining the banks of France’s most fickle river, the vineyards of the Loire Valley<br />

produce a monumental array of 51 appellations, whose diversity is jawdropping.<br />

France’s third largest wine region is popular for its white wines, but<br />

it also offers some remarkable reds whose quality is increasingly attracting<br />

attention. Combining an incredible mosaic of vineyard sites with superb<br />

authenticity, Loire reds cover the flavour spectrum and are gaining traction<br />

internationally. We look at them through the lens of 12 estates in 7 of the region’s<br />

appellations.<br />
