On the eye
Deep ruby robe with brilliant clarity and luminosity
On the nose
Complex bouquet revealing red fruit, violet, forest floor and subtle earthy undertones. The aromatics develop with measured intensity, suggesting mineral depth beneath the fruit.
In the mouth
Silken texture with elegant structure. Ripe red fruit, fine herbs and a mineral finish. The wine displays the characteristic freshness of Cabernet Franc alongside the refinement imparted by amphore maturation.
A wine of considerable elegance, suited to roasted red meats, aged cheeses, or contemplative drinking alone. For those seeking authentic, expressive wines that reflect their origin without artifice. Germain's amphore programme represents a thoughtful return to traditional methods in service of terroir clarity.
