"Full ruby with a garnet rim. Expressive aromas of cassis, licorice, violet, brown spices and tobacco. Mature yet lively, rich but subtle, this cabernet franc impresses with its fine-grained texture, discreet sweetness and brooding flavors of dark berries and minerals. Finishing with silky tannins, it is perfectly developed but has not yet completely run its course."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
An aromatic red grape lending perfume, red fruit and a leafy, savory edge. It thrives in the Loire and as a key blending partner in Bordeaux, especially Saint-Emilion.
