RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Wine rated (2017 guide) 17/20 (Great wine)
Rated Estate (2026 Guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)
About the wine:
Elegant and well-structured, Busardières offers ripe fruit with a full-bodied, velvety texture, remarkable depth, and very harmonious balance.
About the estate:
Emmanuel Caslot and his sister Laurie carry on the work of thirteen generations with love and dedication at this historic estate in Bourgueil. Here, Cabernet Franc is vinified with great care to subtly express the terroirs of sand, clay, and limestone found on the lower, middle, and upper slopes. Each label is thoughtfully adorned with a color that reflects the wine’s intensity and complexity: from bright red for the Peu Muleau to deep purple for the Grand-Mont. These iconic Bourgueil wines highlight the refined, cool austerity of Cabernet Franc while embodying a magnificent, smooth texture. Let’s commend the bottle aging that takes place in the tuffeau cellars before the wines are released to the market.
