Earthy and savory with dried herbs, forest floor and tart red fruit. The palate shows good Loire tension despite somewhat austere tannins. Classic regional character that's drinking well now. Finish through 2020.

Olga Raffault

Family domaine in Chinon producing Cabernet Franc across multiple lieu-dits, including the notable Les Barnabés and Champ-Chenin bottlings. A reliable Loire address for structured, place-specific reds and crisp rosé.
