“A jury charmed by this shimmering and, above all, wonderfully full-bodied red, crafted by a talented winemaker whose entire range comes highly recommended. The sun-kissed aromas of morello cherry and blackcurrant, delightfully rich on the nose, linger sensually on a palate that is generous, smooth, and fresh all at once—and certainly doesn’t lack structure, far from it. The balance is perfect, and the pleasure is undeniable. You’ll be coming back for more.” (Le Guide Hachette 2026).

About the estate:
An estate that has been in the Vallée family for several generations, run by Gérald since 1998, who converted the vineyard—covering 27 hectares in the Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil appellation—to organic farming, which has been certified since the 2012 vintage.

Review by Mr. OLIVIER P. Published on July 28, 2026
An unconventional Cabernet with a farmyard aroma that fades with aeration. But overall, the result is very good.
