Domaine Olivier works Cabernet Franc in the Middle Loire, where the variety finds its most elegant expression. The region's cool climate and slate-rich soils shape wines of structure and mineral precision. The domaine's portfolio centers on two appellations: Le Clos Faguesche Vieilles Vignes and Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil, both bottled from mature vines. The Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil releases—offered in both a standard cuvée and a Vieilles Vignes selection—show the appellation's characteristic balance of red fruit, herbaceous notes, and firm tannin. Wine Enthusiast has rated the domaine's releases. Cabernet Franc from this corner of the Loire demands food; these wines reward the pairing.
