$0.00

Domaine La Grave Cabernet Franc is produced from 100% Cabernet Franc grown on the foothills of the Château La Grave estate in the Languedoc. Planted on light, deep clay-limestone soils, the variety benefits from the Mediterranean climate while the estate's careful winemaking minimizes herbaceous notes and enhances elegance and complexity. Château La Grave is a family-owned estate in Badens that has been estate bottling its wines since the 1970s, combining traditional viticulture with modern cellar techniques.

Appellation: IGP Coteaux de Peyriac
