Domaine du Grand Bouqueteau 2006 Réserve Cabernet Franc (Chinon)
- Online Exclusive
- $19
There is good density of fruit tannins here, boosted by wood. The wine has dried fruit, spice, perfumed blackberry and lively acidity. It could well age for 1–2 years.

Domaine du Grand Bouqueteau 2008 Cabernet Franc (Chinon)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Very perfumed wine, just on the right side of green. The tobacco and dried fruit flavors cut through with intense acidity, breaking out of the dry tannic core.

Crisp, dry, light wine, its freshness coming from redcurrant fruits. A gentle caramel overlay gives extra weight.

Domaine du Grand Bouqueteau 2005 Rosé Cabernet Franc (Chinon)
- Online Exclusive
- $12
This rosé of Cabernet Franc shows hints of bubble gum and candied cherries on the nose, but settles down on the palate to offer more grownup notes of citrus, herb and mineral. It's light and fresh, finishing with a hint of anise. Best on its own or with seafood. Multiple U.S. importers.

Domaine du Grand Bouqueteau 2006 Rosé Cabernet Franc (Chinon)
- Online Exclusive
Full and fat, made from Cabernet Franc, this is a somewhat heavy wine, redeemed by the ripe strawberries and touch of caramel. More acidity would be welcome.

Domaine du Grand Bouqueteau 2005 Réserve Cabernet Franc (Chinon)
- $19
Some weight here, with fresh raspberry flavors. There is a hard edge of tannin, but the tobacco aromas are good, as is the spice and fruitcake flavor.
