Thomas owns 0.15ha planted in 1932. The soil is mostly metagraywackes – a variety of sandstone rich in clay and feldspar – with water retaining capacity well suited to cabernet franc. Thomas aims to extract fine tannins from the stems as well as skin and pips, thus vinification is a whole bunch and without remontage or pigeage over a five to six-week cuvaison. Both fermentation and aging take place in stainless steel, bottling is without SO2. It's a vibrant and free expression of the cabernet franc. The fruit is red and crisp, it’s light and floral with beautifully fine tannins and food-friendly bitters.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thomas Batardiere","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32865758445700,"sku":"210000012002","price":36.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0350\/4717\/8372\/files\/ThomasBatardiere2017CabFranc.png?v=1742038792"}],"url":"https:\/\/flaskfinewines.com\/collections\/thomas-batardiere.oembed","provider":"Flask","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
