"Les Quartiers 2022" was the last to be harvested. Its young, ripe style reflects the warm, sunny, dry season. Its ripeness is almost Mediterranean, but its freshness and chalky character take you back to the Loire, offering lovely finesse and length. Black cherry and chocolate combine with a subtle menthol note, but without a trace of greenness or peppery spice." (Vinous 2025)

Wine rated (2026 guide) 92/100
Domaine rated (guide 2026) 2*Stars (These great estates, often endowed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).
About the wine:
The sunnier Les Quartiers 2022 is also harder to pin down at this stage. Its concentration and impressive stature need at least four to five years to blend in.
About the domain :
Benoît joined the Bourgueil family domaine in 2003 to continue the family adventure initiated by his father Yannick in 1997. The vineyards are divided between Bourgueil (two-thirds) and the neighboring Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil appellation. You can sense the winemakers' perfectionism and their desire to restore the expression of terroirs through very silky, civilized Cabernet Francs that still retain their bright fruit. The estate has been certified organic since 2009, and each year the wines gain in purity thanks to increasingly accurate vinification (truncated wooden vats, stoneware barrels and jars). The 2022 and 2023 delight us with their frank, clean expression and finesse.
