Unfortunately I didn't see your responses in time and went with the Saumur. I was thinking the same thing, it was a little too mild for the meal. Actually, I didn't have any journeyman Bordeaux in the garage anyway ... but no big deal. The wine was very nice, though. It was an old-vine 1999.

Saumur and Saumur-Champigny (as you probably know) are Cab Franc, and the S-C appelation is definitely my favorite Cab Franc in the Loire. It goes with a lot of food, tends to be very smooth, and shows some complexity, especially the old-vine bottles. Domaine Filliatreau is another reliable bottle that I've found. It should be available back in the States. If you can find the old-vine, I would recommend that. Supposedly it can age for 10-15 years.
