Saint Amour

Saint-Amour. It must be said that this, the most northerly Cru, has a name that is gentle on both the ear and the heart. It is the wine of poets and lovers. If it didn’t exist, life would hold less charm. The village of Saint-Amour has given its name to a delightful wine. Going back long before that to Gallo-Roman times, a centurion named stood out for his Christian faith and was martyred. It appears that the path of love is paved with pleasure and pain and is rarely easy.

You don’t have to wait until Saint Valentine’s Day to enjoy a bottle of Saint- Amour. This is a rich, powerful, chewy wine with mellow tannins: one to lay down. It will go beautifully with a leg of lamb and attract compliments from your guests.
