About the estate:
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Wine rated (2026 guide) 90/100
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:
Among the reds, La Source and Cote 50 delight us with their fruity vibrancy and their smooth, easy-drinking balance, with the latter showing slightly more concentration in 2024.
About the estate:
Benoît joined the family estate in Bourgueil in 2003 to carry on the family venture started by his father, Yannick, in 1997. Two-thirds of the vineyards are located in Bourgueil, with the remainder in the neighboring appellation of Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil. You can sense the winemakers’ perfectionism and their desire to capture the expression of the terroirs through very silky and refined Cabernet Francs that still retain vibrant fruit. The estate has been certified organic since 2009, and the wines gain in purity each year thanks to increasingly precise winemaking methods (truncated wooden vats, barrels, and stoneware jars). The 2022 and 2023 vintages delight us with their frank, clean expression and finesse.

Review by Mr. GILLES D. Posted on May 28, 2025
Amirault, as consistently remarkable as ever in the quality of its wines, delivers a lovely, lively, and expressive Bourgueil with this 2023 vintage. Highlighted by a delicate graphite-like acidity that brings a more restrained freshness than in the past, the palate offers a superb, supple, concentrated, and silky juice, enveloped in a pleasant sweetness around savory flavors of ripe fruit, full of vitality and subtly spiced, supported by lovely, present yet well-integrated tannins. The equally indulgent finish concludes with elegance and length. Excellent value for money. Appetizing and fresh, Côte 50 2023 is already a delight to drink with simple, everyday dishes, such as thick slices of braised Vendée ham and tomato-braised white beans, or veal liver with balsamic vinegar and mashed potatoes. Rating = 4.2.
