The still very youthful, dense 2020 has powerful, ripe black fruits, a rich texture and a long finish. The organic Domaine Yannick Amirault was established in 1936 and now has some 20ha, two thirds in Bourgueil and one third in St-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil. Yannick has been running the domaine since the 1990s. He was joined in 2003 by Benoït,his son. The domaine is recognised as one of the top producers of Loire Cabernet Franc. The vines, planted on flinty soil over limestone in the 2ha Le Grand Clos parcel, average 45 years old with low yields averaging around 30 hl/ha. Fermentation is in tapered wooden vats before maturing in 400-litre barrels for between 12 and 18 months depending on the vintage.
