About this product
From the best schist parcels of the Brissac communes — aged 12 months in French oak barrels — this Cabernet Franc-dominant red shows the Loire's most convincing case for red wine seriousness. Deep ruby with aromas of blackcurrant leaf, plum, cedar, iron-schist mineral, and dried violet. The palate is structured with firm, fine-grained tannins and a long mineral finish that echoes the region's distinctive dark slate soils.
