François Blanchard Contrebasse 2015
Loire Valley, France
Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon.
ABV: 12%
A jazz musician, aikidoka, and profound farmer, Francois Blanchard makes some of the most fascinating and energetic wines in Touraine. Located just SW of Chinon in La Grand Cléré, he farms 4 hectares of sauvignon blanc, cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc – most of which was planted by his grandfather 50 years ago. Francois is truly an artisan at heart, making decisions with intuition and experience. His dedication in the vineyard is self-evident in the complexity, tension and concentration of his.
