Domaine Des Générations

Jean François Mérieau

L'Alliance des Générations Touraine Cabernet Franc Malbec

Vintage 2015 | 60 % Cabernet Franc 40 % Cot from vignes that are 30 to 50 years old. 18 months barrel aging, 8 months in bottle. 35 hl/ha. I decanted the wine 2 hours in advance. Medium transparency, cardinal red rim. Red currant and blackberries, full bodied with character, fine acidity. Drinks supple with a bitter touch. This is really good. Certainly for its modest origin. But you can’t say that - it seems - these days because dedicated winegrowers can be found everywhere. | Paired with ostrich stew. — 2 years ago

I'm a Cab-Franc freak so this is really pushing my buttons! Gorgeous aromatics of wild blackberry & currant with a crushed chalk, gravel mineral character along with plenty of stalky spice, capsicum and dark chocolate. Palate is a little more developed, plush, ripe black fruit that's pretty stewed but has some elegance to it, cocoa powder tannins with a touch of green pepper on the finish. — 9 years ago

Domaine Bornard

Au Fil des Générations Poulsard

From a tough 2017 frost-challenged vintage where all the Ploussard was combined. Deep strawberry and sour cherry, a little jura funk and a touch of fizz—it has the Bornard style, just missing the orange fox in the label — 3 years ago

Update: there actually is a fox on the label I’m just an idiot
