Domaine Eric Hérault

Domaine Eric Hérault sits in Chinon, the heart of the Middle Loire's red wine country. The vineyard works with Cabernet Franc, the region's signature grape—a variety that thrives in Chinon's cool climate and gravelly soils, yielding wines marked by structure, mineral precision, and dark fruit. The domaine's portfolio centers on three expressions: L'Hérault-ik, La Pointevinière Chinon, and Cuvée Tradition Chinon, each pure Cabernet Franc. Wine Spectator and Wine Advocate have both assessed the range, with L'Hérault-ik reaching particular critical attention. These are wines rooted in terroir and varietal character—the kind of Loire reds that age with grace and pair naturally with food.
