An exceptional designation in the heart of the Loire
Nestled on the right bank of the majestic Loire, the name Bourgueil embodies the wine excellence of the Loire Valley. Its singular terroir, alternating gravel and clay-limestone, gives wines a unique signature: a refined structure combined with an aromatic palette of great richness. This geological diversity allows each cuvée to fully express their personality, oscillating between vibrant freshness, bewitching depth and subtle complexity.
The Cabernet Franc, the soul of the Bourgueil
At the crossroads of elegance and character, the Cabernet Franc reigns supreme on the appellation. Sometimes accompanied by a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon, this emblematic grape variety here reveals all its nobility: intense aromas of ripe red fruits, floral notes of violet and a delicate spicy frame that is revealed over time. On these generous lands, it gives birth to wines that are both flexible, structured and expressive, as attractive in their youth as after several years of guard.
