Cabernet Franc Cabernet Franc

Producer

Maison Foucher Lebrun

The Chinon appellation is quasi-exclusively dedicated to Cabernet Franc red wines. The terroir here often gives a certain florality to the nose and silky quality on the palate. This is a lovely example, in a fresh, fragrant, early-drinking style with fine structuring tannins and complex flavours. Best served slightly chilled. 2024-2027–JB
