2023 Cuve 8a
2023 Cuve 8a
A warm, generous vintage balanced by cooler winds: resulting in a fresh, precise, and immediately expressive wine.
- Vinified and aged exclusively in concrete vats: no oak, pure terroir
- Produced from specific parcels selected for their mineral expression
- Rated 92/100: ready to enjoy now, and will cellar beautifully through 2034 and more!
Rave Reviews:
"The palate echoes this freshness. Linear and energetic, the wine relies on tannins that provide vibrancy and persistence. A fruity, mouth-watering wine. Drink now–2034."
Yves Beck, 91/100
"Certainly worth seeking out, with strong ageing potential.."
Neal Martin, 92/100
"Dark berry fruits with a little plum and damson, a hint of wild thyme and black pepper. Pure, precise and focused, with the fruit held close to the spine of the wine.. Nicely Done" Colin Hay
A Unique Terroir
The Néac plateau. One of the finest wines of the appellation, and one of the best value wines in France - medium bodied, not over extracted, complex, suave & extremely drinkable, typically with notes of truffle, black fruits, spice and cacao.
