Cabernet Franc is much under-rated and rarely cultivated outside its traditional habitats of Bordeaux and Loire. At Domaine Mas Barrau in the Gard region of Southern Rhône, Boutinot’s Samantha (Bailey) and Eric (Monnin) have worked together with the family of this organic estate near Nîmes to produce a wine that sets new standards for Cabernet Franc.
Domaine Mas Barrau Cabernet Franc, Pays du Gard [Organic] wine is textured and luxurious. This is a sophisticated Cabernet Franc from Gard. There is a wild 'after the rain' woodland perfume. The palate is incredibly long and very rich with fleshy fruit flavours counterbalanced by a bitter, woody, character and a thread of honey. Kick back and enjoy this wine with juicy lamb shanks, rich tomato-based dishes laced with roasted garlic and pepper, marinated steak with mashed potato and green beans or savour it at the end of the meal over a good cheeseboard.
