    Description Bourgueil "Le Haut de la Butte"

    Estate

    Domaine de La Butte is located in Bourgueil, in the Loire Valley. Founded and led for many years by Jacky Blot, the estate is acclaimed for its quality-focused approach and precise winemaking. Farming is conducted with great care and in accordance with sustainable or biodynamic principles.

    Vineyard

    The vineyard lies on south-west facing limestone and clay slopes. The old vines benefit from a temperate climate that ensures good ripening of the Cabernet Franc. Low yields and manual vineyard work promote concentration and terroir expression.

    Wine

    This 2021 Bourgueil red is a pure expression of Cabernet Franc on limestone. It delivers fresh red fruit, finesse, and a supple structure. It is an approachable wine that introduces the character of the appellation.

    Vintage

    2021 was a cool and variable year with significant rainfall. Harvest occurred later than usual. Despite lower yields, the wines show balance, freshness, and typical Loire Valley vibrancy.

    Vinification & Aging

    Fermentations are carried out in temperature-controlled tanks using native yeasts. Aging is done in large old oak casks to preserve fruit purity. Minimal intervention is practiced, and the wine is bottled without excessive filtration.

    Grape Variety

    100% Cabernet Franc
