Fresh and forward. Excellent minerality and lift. I love everything coming from this estate.

Study material, all those underripe notes, jalapeño peppers pickles green herbs the floral side well reflected violets, Raspberries are the main fruit, and obviously some carbonic maceration. Be aware of the non fruit descriptors, structure in a hot/warm vintage might steer towards a carmenere, but can be easily told apart by acidity levels.

So earthy and chewy it's like it's been sieved through mud. Just how a good Cab Franc should be. A little 'tough' mid-palate but good power on the finish. Decent value for a red 2011 Loire at £9 a bottle.
