Eric Railsback and Justin Willett met when Eric was finishing his college career and Justin was in his early stages of his winemaking career. Lieu Dit was founded in 2011 by the pair to give homage and produce indigenous varieties from the Loire Valley.
Whole cluster pressing, neutral oak, then aging in the tank, this Cab Franc shows all the right characteristics. Dark berries, cherries, lavender and dried flowers pop on the nose. The palate is powerful, yet elegant with wonderful acidity.
