About The Wine

Jardin is 100% Cabernet Franc from a single 0.5-hectare parcel, planted in 2016 at an altitude of 80-90 m on a mild west-facing slope on hard, blue-gray marl and clayey Toarcian limestone bedrock, with a topsoil ranging from 20-80 cm in depth, composed of silt, clay, sand, flint, and limestone rock.

The 2022 Jardin was destemmed and naturally fermented in 50 hl steel tanks for 7 days of infusion fermentation at 25°C max, prior to pressing. Aged for 8 months in Tava clay amphoras and concrete eggs before bottling, with no added sulfites at any time and without fining or filtration.
