Yannick Amirault La Coudraye Bourgueil 2017
Bourgueil, Touraine, Loire, FranceThis is a blend of four lieux-dits, which are hand-picked, hand-sorted, and destemmed before fermentation by indigenous yeasts. The wine then matures in large wood tanks for a year. The result is a spicy, refined expression of cabernet franc with liquorice, black cherry, raspberry, and stemmy herbs. The concentration is well above the norm, with a precision to the fruit that you don’t necessarily expect at this price point. Certified organic and bottled unfined and unfiltered.
