Why Cave selected it

Benchmark Saumur Cabernet Franc: certified-organic farming, precise, mineral, and consistently delicious—great value and always in demand.

About the wine

 

The organically farmed vines are hand-harvested from limestone-rich soils around Brézé and Saint-Just-sur-Dive. Grapes are fully destemmed and fermented spontaneously with native yeasts in stainless steel tanks. Extraction is gentle, relying on infusion rather than force, allowing the precision and minerality of Cabernet Franc to shine. The wine undergoes full malolactic conversion and is aged for about 12 months in a mix of older barrels and tanks, with no fining and minimal filtration. It’s a pure, vibrant expression of Saumur—refined, saline, and intensely drinkable.

About Domaine Guiberteau

Domaine Guiberteau is a family estate centred on the work of Romain Guiberteau. The domaine (c. 17–19 ha) sits around Saumur and Brézé, planting both Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc on clay-limestone / tuffeau soils prized in the area. Romain has raised the domaine’s profile since taking charge, concentrating on terroir-driven expressions of the Brézé and surrounding sites and working organically (AB) in the vineyards. His Saumur blancs — from younger village parcels through to the famed Brézé sites — are known for their precision, mineral intensity and a relatively low-intervention cellar approach that favours lees contact, restraint in new oak and preserving varietal clarity.
