Thomas Batardier 2017 Cab Franc
Clos des Noëls is a lieu-dit close to Rablay-sur-Layon. 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.
