Real right-bank Bordeaux, hand-farmed, at a price that makes it a weeknight bottle rather than an occasion one. Gonzague Maurice works ten hectares by hand on the hillside above the old commune of Parsac — the only estate up there — on clay-limestone with faint traces of iron, inside the Montagne Saint-Emilion appellation. He's farmed organically since 2010 but dropped the certification, deciding the cost and paperwork didn't make sense on wines priced like these; grass is sown between the rows and ploughing alternates row by row. Merlot still dominates the plantings, though as the climate warms Maurice has been putting in more of the later-ripening Cabernet Franc for freshness and lift in hot years. Everything is sorted twice, fermented in small concrete tanks and aged in a mix of tank and one-to-two-year-old barrels — nothing new, the point being to keep the fruit intact rather than dress it up in oak. One charming detail: the carving on the label is copied from an 18th-century tower standing in the middle of the vineyard, showing a pilgrim on the road to Santiago de Compostela.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Steak frites with a shallot butter, roast chicken with thyme, duck confit and white beans, a mushroom-and-lardon tart, or a plate of Comté and jambon de Bayonne.

Tasting Profile

Dry and medium-bodied, with dark plum and black cherry fruit, a little leafy Cabernet Franc freshness, and an earthy, gently savory edge. Tannins are soft and fine-grained rather than grippy, acidity keeps it lively, and the finish is clean and fruit-driven with no obvious oak.
