Famille Arbeau L'Alignement des Planetes
Country: France
Region: Fronton
Grapes: Braucol, Côt, Cabernet Sauvignon
Vintage: 2023
Famille Arbeau are based in Fronton, a tiny but fascinating appellation on the river Tarn around 30 miles north of Toulouse. The Arbeau's winemaking roots in the area date back to 1878, and the domaine is now run by brother and sister Anne and Gérard Arbeau who have converted to organics in order to better express the unique terroir and grape varieties of Fronton.
This is a brand new cuvée for 2023 made from a blend of Braucol, Côt and Cabernet Sauvignon. A juicy but well-structured red combining blueberry and raspberry liquorice fruit notes with spicy tobacco, aniseed and savoury game.
