Description

A Cot (malbec) and Gamay blend from the Loire valley. It is amazingly rich and full of body and depth for a Loire red wine. Ancestral is the most serious of his red wines in terms of structure and weight. But the characteristic freshness and acidity is still there and the wine is so elegant it can be drunk young alone or with a few years in bottle.

Julien Courtois and Heidi Kuka created a 4.5 h vineyard located in the heart of the Sologne. They both cultivate seven varieties of grapes. Julien is a natural and non-interventionist winemaker like his father Claude. Everything is done manually from start to finish. As a result, his wines are unique, rich and with singular taste.
