Domaine Du Bel Air Bourgueil Marsaules 2021 750ml

Domaine du Bel Air Bourgueil “Marsaules” 2021 is an elegant, organically produced Cabernet Franc from the Loire Valley in France. Sourced from mature vines averaging around 60 years old, the wine reflects the distinctive sandy and micaceous limestone soils of the Marsaules vineyard. The cooler 2021 vintage brings aromatic freshness, floral nuances, and concentrated fruit supported by fine, structured tannins. Traditional fermentation with indigenous yeasts and ageing in previously used oak barrels build complexity while preserving the wine’s purity and mineral character. Refined, savoury, and full of depth, it is a compelling expression of Bourgueil terroir.
