On the palate

The flagship wine of the domaine, this Cabernet Franc comes in from old 70+ year old vines. It’s packed with lifted red and blue fruit, lavender, tilled earth and echoes of Northern Rhone spice. The palate is dense, flavourful. Delicious now, but with the stuffing to reward time in cellar. Decanting recommended. Lingering, chalky tannins on the finish.

Catherine and Pierre Breton are the real life bon vivants vignerons of lore. They are passionate about what they do they enjoy sharing it with others and they entertain with a generosity and charm. That they make great wine with such integrity makes our appreciation of them complete. The Bretons farm eleven hectares of vines just east of Bourgueil in the village of Restigné. They produce Chinon and Bourgueil as well as a bit of Vouvray creating honest wines for both early consumption and longer aging. The Bretons first introduced biodynamic practices into their viticulture in 1994 just after receiving their organic certification in 1991. Recently they started the three-year process of seeking biodynamic certification. In fact they have become international icons for the natural wine movement in an area where the climate and soil can make organic viticulture difficult.
