Domaine de la Chevalerie

Loire Cabernet Franc of precision and mineral depth from Bourgueil.

The region's cool continental climate and slate-rich soils shape wines of structure and mineral precision. The domaine's portfolio centers on three bottlings: Alcofribas and Vieilles Vignes, both rated 95.0 by prestige critics including Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, and Wine Enthusiast, and Vin de Garde, rated 94.0 across the same panel. Cabernet Franc from Bourgueil typically displays dark fruit, herbal notes, and the linear acidity that defines Loire reds. These wines reflect the terroir and varietal character that have made the appellation essential to understanding cool-climate Cabernet Franc.
