The estate and the wine |
|
|
Just outside Orléans, at Clos Saint-Fiacre, Bénédicte and Hubert Piel are leading the revival of a historic vineyard. Once the primary wine supplier to Paris, this terroir is now producing wines of remarkable elegance under their careful stewardship.
With a meticulous and forward-thinking approach, they showcase the full potential of this young appellation, where Cabernet Franc delivers pure, expressive, and deeply satisfying wines. Refined, balanced, and full of character, these cuvées are an invitation to rediscover a long-overlooked region. |

The 2022 Red Orléans-Cléry is a pure, fruit-driven delight, aged without oak. This beautifully crafted Cabernet Franc is both ripe and silky, with remarkable precision and a clear black fruit character. A wine made for sharing—perfect with grilled meats or charcuterie. A favorite of the Selection Committee, rated 93+/100. |
