Detailed info

Nicolas Grosbois took over the reins of this small 9-hectare family estate in 2008. Vines are grown according to the principles of organic farming in order to fully reflect this part of Chinon's terroir. Made with vines that are on average 40 years old, this supple, fresh and digestible Cabernet Franc offers a nice fruity, floral and vegetal character. A particularly successful pairing with a shallot flank steak or a pizza with grilled vegetables.

L'Assomption

November 16, 2024

(Automatically translated) Fruity with beautiful, elegant tannins. Blackcurrant, violet and pepper make us salivate with each sip. Nicolas Grosbois is a staple at SAQ.
