About: The first Pineau d'Aunis to be released from the cellars of the Rue Des Belles Caves and it was very much worth waiting for. From the same parcel as their Bois Guyon Cabernet Franc, but a side with richer soils. The Aunis was macerated whole bunch for around two weeks very gently before pressing very slowly and ageing in barrel for two years. Now it's here, with incredibly silky, soft tannins, a hint of that peppery fruit but wonderful aromatics, it is unique and totally delicious.
