Rich, Robust, Oak-Aged Cabernet Franc
The Perrière family, acquiring the deed to this domaine in 1398, produces all of their wines from Cabernet Franc using traditional methods and modern equipment.Although some of their wine is produced from recently planted vines and is consumed young, this wine was produced from older vines (approximately 75 years old) in the famous Cravant-Les-Côteaux. Through aging, this wine will reach a fullness sufficient to merit inclusion among some of the finest wines in France. Truly an incredible value.
Wine Spectator, in their October 1998 issue gave the 1996 vintage 90pts.
