🍷 Lush, silky, and unmistakably Cabernet Franc.

Chinon’s diverse soils give rise to a spectrum of Cabernet Franc styles, from vibrant and fruit-forward to deep, structured, and built for aging. Cobalt sits perfectly between these two expressions, sourced from a single vineyard plot just 8 km south of Chinon. Here, sandy soils rest over a clay-limestone base, lending the wine both bright, expressive fruit and a smooth, refined tannic structure.

✨ Classic Chinon character, with a rebellious twist.

Under the skilled hands of Pauline Lair, this organically farmed Cabernet Franc bursts with forthright fruitiness while maintaining the depth and finesse that define the region. Though it embodies Chinon’s identity, you won’t find the name on the label—she prefers to craft wines outside the appellation, following her own path.
