Chateau du Hureau has been in the same family for 5 generations. The property sits on top of Tuffeau limestone into which the cellar was dug in the 1300's. The name "Tuffe" harkens back to this limestone subsoil. This is a medium bodied wine with a good blend of dark and red fruit. You can get alot of vegetal and pepper notes with Cabernet Franc, but here these flavors add complexity and balance as opposed to overwhelming the palete. A great introduction to Cabernet Franc.
