$59.99
New cuvée replacing Les Rouliers, this is old-vine Cabernet Franc from the north-facing slopes of the La Grande Maille lieu-dit on black schist soils. Fermented naturally and aged 10 months in barrel without racking. Bottled with a light touch of sulfur (10 mg/L total). Fresh and lifted at 12.5% ABV—vibrant, mineral, and classically Courault.
