The Caslot family have been farming their domaine of thirty-three hectares since 1640 from their farmhouse which sits on the hill overlooking the vines in the heart of the superb terroir of Restigné. Today Pierre’s son Emmanuel and daughter Stéphanie are in charge. These dynamic siblings have been instrumental in upgrading the winery equipment and converting the domain to organic farming.
A classic expression of Cabernet Franc from Domaine de la Chevalerie, a historic family estate in Bourgueil, in the Loire Valley. Produced from biodynamically farmed vineyards on the region’s clay-limestone soils, this cuvée combines the generosity of the 2018 vintage with the freshness and structure characteristic of the appellation. Aromas of ripe red cherry, blackcurrant and plum are complemented by notes of violet, graphite, dried herbs and subtle earthy spice. The palate is supple and finely structured, with well-integrated tannins, balanced acidity and a savoury, mineral finish. An elegant and approachable Bourgueil, offering both immediate pleasure and the potential for further ageing.
