Domaine Grosbois - Chinon Gabare 2018
CABERNET FRANC 100%
Vinified by Nicolas Grosbois in Panzoult in native yeasts, very few sulphites and organic grapes.
TASTING NOTES
The wines of Domaine Grosbois are true bistro wines: food friendly and easy to drink with a succulent complexity. Not a lot of pretension, not a lot of cosmetic surgery—just fresh fruit and a whole lot of personality. Cab Franc’s classic note of green pepper on the nose reveal this wine’s DNA, but the Gabare Cabernet Franc delivers far more depth, with enticing layers of blackcurrants and dark berries and an elegant, silky tannic structure. The finish is mineral driven and clean. The Gabare is stunning example of a fresh, rich Chinon bursting with life.

Les Tètes is a story of four buddies who wanted to take back a vineyard to produce great whites. In parallel, and using the beautiful terroirs grolleau / gamay / cabernet franc and sauvignon on the estate, their objective was to create the wine brand Les Tètes, only organic wines with the principle of using only indigenous yeasts and very few sulphite. This materialized their story of them being friends since les Tètes bear their 4 first names.
Moreover, this allowed them, on the one hand, to produce wines from an estate within the limits of the plots they own, and, on the other, to enjoy themselves with the grapes they sell elsewhere in Touraine and to obtain in assembly exactly what they wanted on Les Tètes.
