Place: Loire Valley, France

Variety: Cabernet Franc

Farming: Biodynamic

The Hardouin family has farmed vineyards in the Loire’s appellations of Saumur and Saumur-Champigny since 1783! However, the most exciting chapter for this estate began in 2017 when the great Loire vigneron Nicholas Reau took over farming and winemaking.

100% cabernet franc fermented and aged in stainless steel for a wonderfully fresh disposition. Great concentration with inflections of red flowers and fresh herbs. Drink cool not cold to allow the texture to come to the fore.
