It combines finesse and structure: the nose evokes dark fruits – Morello cherry, blackberry – with a light touch of oak. The palate is fleshy and harmonious, with a soft texture and velvety tannins, supported by a long finish focused on stewed fruit, as noted by the Guide Hachette which describes it as \"very successful\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"108\" data-end=\"546\"\u003eDomaine Audebert \u0026amp; Fils, rooted in Bourgueil since 1839, is a family estate of over 40 hectares spread across Bourgueil, Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil, and Chinon. Faithful to Cabernet Franc – locally called \"Breton\" – the estate cultivates this grape variety across a mosaic of terroirs, from silty sands to calcareous clays, and even gravel. The wines thus faithfully reflect the expression of each plot and vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"548\" data-end=\"831\"\u003eBourgueil wines benefit from varied soils, conferring structure and depth: notes of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, with supple tannins for young vintages, and firmer tannins on clay-limestone terroirs for age-worthy wines from old vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"833\" data-end=\"1056\"\u003eIn Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil, the vines rest on Cenomanian gravel. The resulting wines are lighter, lively, and fruity, with remarkable elegance, always carried by a beautiful springtime freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1058\" data-end=\"1337\"\u003eThe estate's Chinon wines are planted on silty sands along the Loire and Vienne rivers: here again, they express softness, silky tannins, vivacity, and immediate deliciousness, perfect for drinking young, but capable of developing complexity in the medium term (5-8 years).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1339\" data-end=\"1687\"\u003eThe estate combines traditional winemaking – fermentation in stainless steel tanks, indigenous yeasts, controlled maceration – with careful aging (tank and 600-liter barrels), sometimes in a troglodyte cellar, ensuring gentle oxygenation. This approach gives birth to wines of character, balanced, fruity, but also capable of improving with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1689\" data-end=\"1950\"\u003eThe estate offers guided or self-guided cellar tours, with on-site tasting, and has long been featured on the menus of the best restaurants (Relais \u0026amp; Châteaux, Gault \u0026amp; Millau, Michelin), testifying to its strong local and professional recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cave de France","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51724093391184,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/7026\/9284\/files\/BourgueilGrandClosAudebertX6_11e97ab4-df7d-4b30-85bf-36d82121a33a.png?v=1752939802","url":"https:\/\/cavedefrance.com\/en\/products\/bourgueil-domaine-du-grand-clos-audebert-et-fils","provider":"Cave de France","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
