On the eye
Clear ruby robe with violet and cherry highlights
On the nose
Floral notes with red fruit character. The bouquet reveals the characteristic elegance of ungrafted Cabernet Franc, with subtle mineral undertones.
In the mouth
Direct attack with fresh, slightly crushed red fruit and generous juice. Excellent acidity on the finish provides structure and length, with a silken texture throughout.
Franc de Pied is pure emotion in wine form. Thierry Germain's ungrafted vines deliver a distinctive vibration and vital energy absent from grafted stock. This is the domain's most sincere expression—naked and unadorned Cabernet Franc. Essential for those seeking to understand the cépage's quintessence. Recommended with roasted capon, beef tartare with capers, or braised pork fillet.
