100% cabernet franc fermented and aged in stainless steel for a wonderfully fresh disposition. Great concentration with inflections of red flowers and fresh herbs. Drink cool not cold to allow the texture to come to the fore.
Whilst the Hardouin family has been present in Varrains since 1783 and Mickael Hardouin has been creating very good wines since 2007 from their exceptionally placed vineyards, the story of Clos Maurice as we now know it is a very new one. In 2017 Nicolas Reau began a partnership with the domain, immediately changing the farming and winemaking practices. The results three years on are spectacular.
Organic farming is undertaken, and vinification is conducted with an extremely hands off approach. Fermentation for most cuvees occurs in Cement or Steel and no S02 is used in the Red wines, Chenin Blanc or Crémant. Purity of fruit and racy texture are the hallmark here and we are so excited to be apart of the story of these wines that resonate with energy and a re- markable sense of place.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
