Who wants a ridiculously good value from France?
The domaine crafts this delicious quaffer from the appellation of Madiran, one of the most pedigreed terroirs of the southwest. They farm biodynamically on 10 hectares of vines that are divided into three terraces of clay and gravel soils. Their blend consists of Cabernet Franc and Merlot. It's hard to say no to the luscious blackberries and spicy hints of licorice in this very quaffable red.

Staff Review: For those of you who have been putting off trying French wine, now's the time to try it! This cab franc/merlot blend has jammy dark fruit on the nose with notes of blackberry, raspberry, plum, and a hint of pepper. Pair with some Drunken Goat and Olli Salami for the ultimate power trio. Cheers!
