100% Cabernet Franc sourced from a handful of esteemed plots in Saumur, including the revered hill of Brézé, Loire's unofficial Grand Cru. Organically grown and hand-harvested, the grapes are pressed using whole bunches, then fermented with ambient yeast in stainless steel, where it ages for 6 months prior to a light filtration and bottling.
A shimmering, light pink in the glass, the aromatics are fresh, bright and on full display here, busting with red currant, raspberry, rose water and fresh cut herbs. The bone-dry palate is packed with tart red fruit, cooling saline minerals and a touch of savory bell pepper. All set off by racy, tongue-tingling acidity and angular textures. A brilliant wine with tons of cut and verve from one of the world's top domaines.
