"An immediate dose of pleasure, a sure bet for upcoming spring aperitifs!"

Cuvée Si Le Vin (Ex Tradition) comes from young Cabernet Franc vines planted on sandy terraces. The wine is juicy, with hints of crisp, tart red fruit. The attack is fresh and pleasant, enhanced by supple tannins.

Expert opinion

Bettane & Desseauve

Bettane & Desseauve

Domaine rated 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))

About the domain :

The result of a long family history, the Bruneau-Dupuy estate has now been taken over by Sylvain. Since 2012, the vineyard has been in organic conversion. The estate covers an area of 20 hectares, protected by forest to the north. Half of the estate is located on south-facing slopes, covered with old vines planted on clay-limestone soils. The wines produced from these vines are full-bodied and long on the palate. The other half of the vineyard is planted in sandy soils, producing lighter, fruitier wines to be enjoyed young. At less than 15 euros, the wines offer good value for money.
