£15.00

Fresh and fruity Cabernet Franc from a top Loire Valley appellation

The cultivation of wine in Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil was developed by the Benedictine monks at Bourgueil Abbey. Locals attribute the introduction of Cabernet Franc to Abbot Baudry (in 1089) who was reportedly a keen oenophile who championed the region’s wines. The vineyards of Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil are spread over 820 hectares with the soil composed of chalk, clay and patches of granite. It is well sheltered from the northern winds and the vineyards enjoy a mild and temperate micro-climate. perfect.

This wine is very typical of the appellation. The grapes undergo a short maceration, which produces a round and fresh finish. Notes of red fruit, some leafy character, and a touch of liquorice.
