Gobelet is our first-made single Cabernet Franc that comes from the Northern side of Monte Alabanza. Like La Craie, it runs through the vineyard from East to West in the other side of the hill, under a more exposed face and a gentler slope.
It was destemmed into neutral used french oak barrels. Fermentation was spontaneous with indigenous yeasts and vinification was carried out with very gentle pillages. The skins remained in contact with the wine for 35 days. The aging was 16 months in the same barrel.
It is a sober, herbal and fresh wine on the nose, not as evident and pyrazinic as others. Of great tension.
We call it Monastic because it speaks more about the place than the grape. In the mouth, it is long and deep like its brothers from Monte Alabanza, with extra fine and long grained tannins.
