Notes from the Importer: Domaine Bobinet came into being in 2002 when Sébastien's maternal grandparents gave him two hectares of vineyards in Saumur, in the Loire Valley (France) and he decided to create his own winemaking project under the influence of natural vignerons such as Olivier Cousin.

However, Domaine Bobinet really began to take off when Emeline, a former dancer and sommelier by training, became a partner in the project. It was then that they acquired more vineyards and decided to try other varieties in addition to Cabernet franc and Chenin, with the constant concern of maintaining sustainable, healthy and ethical activity as a starting point.

Less stemmy, peppery and sticky-tannin-ed than in previous vintages, but still spritzy & cola-esque like an original apothecary version of Dr. Pepper, watermelon seed, cherry pastille, Finnish rye bread with a thick layer of lingonberry preserves & a sprinkle of white pepper like perfect summertime freckles.
