LAST FEW CASES REMAINING
Honest, characterful Loire Cabernet Franc.
'Cuvée de Pâques' is made from young vines averaging 25 years old. Only natural yeasts are used during the three week fermentation, added sulphur is kept to a minimum (just a single application of 3g/hl) and the wine undergoes a light filtration before ageing in concrete vats. Bottling takes place close to Easter ('Pâques'), usually in the April after harvest.
With a little air Domaine de la Roche Honneur wine opens up to reveal ripe blackberry fruit and robust, herby flavours with a clean, balancing freshness on the finish. Honest earthy Loire Cabernet Franc perfect with a lunch of charcuterie and artisan cheese. Flavoursome and medium-bodied, this is the perfect match for charcuterie and artisan cheeses as well as pasta with a herby tomato sauce or a simply grilled lamb chop.
Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
