"A particularly easy-drinking vintage that is sure to charm you!
Notes of crunchy red and black fruits mingle with spicy notes on the nose of L'Instan T version rouge, which also offers us a supple, fresh, pleasantly fruity palate that's both light and delicious.

Expert opinion
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Wine rated (guide 2024) 88/100
Domaine noté (guide 2024) Sélectionné (We remind you that this guide is a prize list, and as such, all the estates that appear in it, even without a star, represent, in our eyes, the excellence of French production).
About the wine:
Instan T red, a little wild, structured by its prominent tannins.
About the domain :
Taking over part of his uncle's vineyard, young Florent Barichard vinified his first vintage in 2013. With his partner Éric Nesson, they carry out serious plot-based work. Indigenous yeasts and ageing in concrete vats give birth to ripe, fresh, dynamic whites that are helping to renew the local landscape. Prohibited in the Saint-Pourçain appellation, grape varieties vinified on their own are classified as Vin de France.
