ABOUT THE WINE
“La Cuisine de Ma Mère” is a heartfelt expression of Cabernet Franc, sourced from organically farmed vineyards in Chinon. The 2023 vintage is vibrant and aromatic, offering notes of raspberry, red currant, and wild strawberry layered with hints of bell pepper, rose petal, and damp earth. Fermented with native yeasts and handled with minimal intervention, the wine emphasizes freshness, purity, and drinkability.

Soils of sand and gravel over limestone lend lift and finesse, resulting in a supple texture and refreshing structure. This cuvée is crafted to be enjoyed young, showcasing the grape’s bright fruit and savory edge rather than heavy extraction or oak influence. True to its name—“my mother’s cooking”—it is a quintessential food wine, pairing beautifully with roast chicken, charcuterie, lentil dishes, or classic bistro fare.
