9.0

Region: Bourgueil
Grape: Cabernet Franc
Vintage: 2021

Tasting Notes

* Nose: Fresh raspberry, black cherry, violet, graphite, crushed herbs, and a hint of bell pepper (a classic Cabernet Franc characteristic).
* Palate: Medium-bodied with bright acidity, silky tannins, and remarkable freshness.
* Finish: Long, mineral-driven, with elegant red fruit and subtle spice.

Unlike the richer Cabernet Sauvignon wines from Bordeaux or Napa, this wine is all about finesse, freshness, and purity.

Vintage

2021 was a cooler vintage in the Loire. That means:

* More vibrant acidity
* Lower alcohol
* More restrained fruit
* A classic, food-friendly style that should age gracefully — 2 days ago

🍒 Fruit: Fresh red cherries, raspberries, wild strawberries
🌿 Herbal notes: A touch of Loire freshness—sometimes subtle herbs and floral notes
🪵 Oak: Usually very restrained, so don’t expect the vanilla or spice you’d get from a heavily oaked Pinot
🍷 Body: Light to medium-bodied, easy drinking, smooth tannins — 16 days ago
