Description of Bourgueil "Avis de Vin Fort"

Estate

Catherine & Pierre Breton is a renowned estate known for environmentally respectful and terroir-expressive Loire wines. The duo has established itself as a benchmark for authentic and expressive wines from the Touraine region.

Vineyard

Located in Touraine, the vineyard benefits from clay-limestone soils ideal for cultivating Cabernet Franc, a varietal well-suited to this terroir and known for its elegant and refined expression.

Wine

This Bourgueil is a red wine made exclusively from Cabernet Franc. It is characterized by freshness, liveliness, and a beautiful fruity expression typical of the 2022 vintage.

Vintage

The 2022 vintage was marked by a dry and warm summer, allowing optimal grape ripeness which contributes to good concentration and balanced structure in the wine.

Vinification & Aging

Vinification is carefully managed to preserve natural aromas. Aging in stainless steel tanks ensures freshness and aromatic purity without adding woody notes.
