A rare elegance animates this vibrant Cabernet Franc from Domaine de la Butte, accessible and rewarding from today onwards.
The Bourgueil Le Haut de la Butte 2023 from Domaine de la Butte is a Cabernet Franc of exemplary purity, born on the summit of the hillside where chalky soils emerge and yield wines of striking tension and straightness. This cuvée rightfully embodies the legacy of Jacky Blot (1948-2023), a visionary winemaker who revealed the full nobility of Bourgueil's terroir.
The nose opens onto precise aromas of crisp red fruits, violet, and subtle stony notes, typical of tuffeau soils. On the palate, the wine distinguishes itself through a fresh and juicy attack, refined and digestible texture, and a finish of great elegance marked by a salivating minerality.
Aged in vat to preserve the purity of the fruit, Le Haut de la Butte 2023 perfectly illustrates the domaine's style, producing authentic, precise and luminous wines that marry both generosity and freshness.
A vibrant and honest Bourgueil to enjoy now alongside fine charcuterie, grilled poultry, or aged goat cheese.
