Far more elegant and floral than the Beauregards '11. Very very pretty Cab Franc.

A lovely Saumur "Les Cormiers" La Porte Saint Jean from Sylvain Dittière, old Cabernet Franc vinified without sulphur - an intense beauty such purity in and freshness in this Cabernet with big character

A 100% cabernet franc that needs lots of cellaring and decanting. Not user friendly but interesting in a sophisticated and rewarding way.

Nez de terre de fruit noir frais avec pourtant une dimension sudiste note d agrume avec l air
Bouche ample généreuse avec des notes de fruit noirs et un équilibre maturité acidité hors norme
