Very soft tannins, high aromatics, and elegance. A surprising Bourgueil that will delight you.

Old vine ungrafted Cabernet franc. Amazing value and most consumers just don't get it. Food friendly and very good.

2011. From a tiny parcel of ungrafted vines. Rich and light at the same time. Wonderfully concentrated cab franc.
