Domaine Yannick Amirault - IGP Val de Loire Franc Secret blanc 2025
"The first vintage produced for this exclusive micro-cuvée!"
Franc Secret plays on the contrast between the frankness of Cabernet Franc and the mystery of its white vinification. Behind the natural absence of red pigments lies an unusual aroma. The DNA of the grape variety gives this white wine a smoothness and unique personality, ideal for a moment of pure indulgence.

About the estate:
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
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 the estate:
Benoît arrived at the family estate in Bourgueil in 2003 to continue the family adventure started by his father Yannick in 1997. Two-thirds of the vineyard is located in Bourgueil, with the rest in the neighboring Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil appellation. You can sense the winemakers' perfectionism and their desire to express the terroir through very silky and civilized Cabernet Franc wines that retain their vibrant fruitiness. The estate has been certified organic since 2009 and the wines are gaining in purity every year thanks to increasingly precise vinification methods (conical wooden vats, barrels and stoneware jars). The 2022 and 2023 vintages delight us with their frank, clear expression and finesse.
