Yannick Amirault Bourgueil Grand Mont 2020 is a Cabernet Franc from the Middle Loire Valley. Sourced from an iconic single vineyard on a limestone-rich hillside, this wine is produced by Yannick Amirault following organic and biodynamic principles. The 2020 vintage was warm and dry, resulting in a Cabernet Franc of exceptional power and concentration. The bouquet is a complex mix of dark raspberries, violets and crushed stones, with a hint of smoky reduction. The palate is structured and dense, with firm but refined tannins and a vibrant acidity that provides incredible lift. This long-lived Bourgueil finishes with a cooling mineral streak and a persistent note of earthy complexity and black fruit.
