"The crisp freshness of grapes grown on sandy soils bursts forth in Dyptique, a delicious, tender wine that is very precocious. " (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2017 - RVF) The ultimate wine for sharing, the Diptyque cuvée expresses its freshness through aromas of red fruit. Subtle vegetal notes recall the typical characteristics of these 35-year-old Cabernet Franc vines. A delightfully crisp Bourgueil!

Wine rated (2017 guide) 15,5/20 (Good wine)
Rated estate (2026 guide) 2 stars (These very large estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).
About wine:
The crisp freshness of grapes grown on sandy soil bursts forth in Dyptique, a sweet and tender fragrance that is very precocious.
About the estate:
Emmanuel Caslot and his sister Laurie lovingly and meticulously continue the work of thirteen generations in this historic Bourgueil estate. Here, Cabernet Franc is vinified with real gentleness to express the nuances of the sandy, clay, and limestone terroirs of the lower, middle, and upper slopes. Each label is judiciously adorned with a color that reflects the intensity and complexity of the wine: from bright red for the Peu Muleau to deep purple for the Grand-Mont. These absolute references in Bourgueil highlight the fine, cool austerity of Cabernet Franc, cloaked in a magnificent smooth texture. Let's salute the bottle aging in the tuffeau cellars before they are released for sale.
