Frederic Mabileau Rouilléres

Frédéric Mabileau “Rouillères” 2023 opens with pure, lifted aromas of redcurrant, raspberry, and crunchy cherry, accented by violet, graphite, and a gentle herbal freshness that reflects the domaine’s biodynamic farming and the sandy‑gravel soils of the Rouillères parcel. The palate is bright, supple, and finely textured, offering juicy red‑berry fruit supported by lively acidity and ultra‑fine tannins that keep the wine energetic and precise. Subtle notes of pepper, crushed stone, and a whisper of earth add quiet complexity without interrupting the wine’s sleek, fruit‑driven core. The finish is fresh, vibrant, and delicately savory, showcasing a beautifully balanced Loire Cabernet Franc with charm, purity, and the unmistakable finesse of Mabileau’s style.
