Production
Guillaume Letang looked specifically for vines which are south-facing, and thus recieve the most sunlight, to source the Cabernet Franc grapes for this wine. The terroir is full of limestone which gives rich yet soft and lightly acidic wine; this in turn gives the drinker a pleasantly sweet sensation on the palate.
Tasting notes
An exceptionally ripe and luxurious Cabernet Franc from Gard. There is a wild 'after the rain' woodland perfume, with menthol and rich truffley hints. The palate is supple and layered with generous notes of bramble fruit, plum and strawberry.
Food match
Juicy lamb shanks, rich tomato based dishes laced with roasted garlic and pepper, marinated steak with mashed potato and green beans or savour it at the end of the meal over a good cheeseboard.
