Château du Hureau Les Fevettes 2014
Saumur, Loire, FranceLes Fevettes is from the estate's oldest cabernet franc vineyard, planted in 1943 on deep clay and sand, and has been vinified separately since 1989. Organically farmed, this macerated on skins for approximately one month before spending two years in foudres and being bottled unfined and unfiltered. Satisfyingly alluring with savoury cured meats, baking spices, sultry five spice, dried violets with downy, soft clad tannins. Mulberry, dusky plum, perfumed cassis lingers on the finely textured finish.Tasted: 18 September 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $35.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
