100% Cabernet Franc. Collaboration between Cave de Chinon Co-op and an organisation called CAT, dedicated to getting the disabled into
work. Also a product of the ‘Cabernet Franc Project’, led by Sam Harrop MW, remodelling Cab Franc wines to make them more suited to an
international audience, with fuller, riper fruit than in the past. Grown on gravel over a layer of limestone with 5,000vines/ha. The grapes were
machine-harvested in early October and destemmed before being fermented at 18 - 24°C in thermo-regulated stainless steel tanks for
4 - 12 days. No oak influence. Winemaker Roman Parisis. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Alc 12.5%, TA 3.9g/l, pH 3.62, RS 0.5g/l.
Special Offer: Save 25%, £9.49 - £6.99 from 07/12/11 to 03/01/12. Waitrose Wine Direct and 142 branches.

Young, savoury nose. Very savoury taste. Needs food.
