Sylvie Augereau Anjou Les Manquants 2020

This bold Cabernet Franc offers a vibrant, herbaceous nose (reminiscent of crushed young branches) layered with ash and ripe fruit. Rustic yet balanced, it features light volatile acidity (not overpowering) and subtle brettanomyces—adding complexity for those who appreciate funky notes. Juicy with bright acidity, its wild, barnyard-like character ("stalla") gives it a distinctive, untamed appeal. While not a "clean" style, its raw personality makes it intriguing.
