Cabernet Franc, Dom. de la Petite Mairie

The Cuvée Ronsard is made from a single vineyard situated on deeper gravels surrounding the Gambier compound that give the wine a more masculine mien, structured yet regal. It begins its life in large old, oak foudres but receives additional ageing in small, older oak barrels for 6 to 9 months before being bottled some 18 to 20 months after harvest. A wine of exceptional complexity, the Cuvée Ronsard benefits from significant aging.
