Owner's words
Château Franc Mayne 2024 reveals an expressive nose of fresh, ripe and luscious fruit. The palate is precise, with chiseled tannins from the attack to the finish, offering a perfect balance between density, roundness, and tension. The crispness of the fruit is still there, married to the emblematic energy of Franc Mayne, which stretches the wine.
