Arnauld Cassini is one of a few producers leading a revolution. A revolution against the intervention-heavy winemaking which has plagued one of the world’s finest terroirs. With close friends Catherine and Pierre Breton, and taking inspiration from Didier Dagueaneau, he takes a hands-off approach in the vineyard. This extends to the cellar, where he uses no oak (preferring concrete as a vessel for fermentation and maturation), minimal sulphur and neither fines nor filters his wines. Compelling and delicious!

Bright with medium deep cherry-red with pink hues. Vibrant aromas of ripe cherries and raspberries with hints of sweet spices & floral, rose petal notes. Medium body with moderate high acidity and the slightest hint of ripe tannins. Flavors are consistent with the aromas with some shades of sweet grass. The finish is moderately long with evolving flavors that add complexity.
