產地：法國
產區：羅亞爾河谷 (Loire Valley)

Les Quatre Piliers Grande Cuvée Au Dessus de Vitré Cabernet Franc 2023 is an exceptional wine from rising star Valentin Desloges, who trained under Burgundian legends Coche-Dury and Sipp before establishing his acclaimed Loire estate in Touraine. This flagship cuvée is crafted from 70-year-old Cabernet Franc vines rooted in clay-limestone soils in Saint-Aignan-sur-Cher, a rare vineyard converted to organic farming that produces profound, age-worthy expressions.

Bordeaux-Style Barrel Aging & Minimal Intervention

Following 22 days of careful vatting with gentle extraction, the wine matures for 18 months in ex-Château Cheval Blanc and Château Mangot barrels without new oak, preserving fruit purity while adding complexity. Bottled unfiltered with minimal sulfites, respecting natural winemaking principles.

Complex Cherry & Elegant Structure

Rated 91/100 by Bettane+Desseauve, expect a vibrant red robe revealing complex aromas of cherry, red fruits, and spices with floral and earthy undertones. The palate delivers elegant, airy, and suave texture with silky tannins, superb aromatic length, and fine-grained minerality.
