Domaine de L'R Les Houttes 2023

Domaine de L’R “Les Hautes” 2023 captures the purest side of Chinon — Cabernet Franc in its most vibrant, unadorned form. Grown organically on limestone and sandy soils by Frédéric Sigonneau, the wine embodies his naturalist approach: no oak, minimal intervention, and maximum freshness. The result is a graceful red full of lift, aromatic precision, and the unmistakable Loire energy that dances between fruit and earth.

“Les Hautes” 2023 is made for simple, soulful cuisine and relaxed dining. Serve it lightly chilled (14–15°C) with roasted chicken, charcuterie, or grilled vegetables. It pairs beautifully with lentil salad, mushroom fricassée, or goat cheese tart — classic Loire companions that echo its freshness. The wine’s delicate herbal edge complements Mediterranean dishes with thyme, tomato, and olive oil. For an elegant vegetarian pairing, try it with roasted beet carpaccio or baked eggplant with herbs. A red that invites conversation, food, and effortless enjoyment.
