The wines of Domaine Guion are a pure and honest expression of Bourgueil’s limestone and gravel soils, crafted with a commitment to organic farming and minimal intervention. Centered on Cabernet Franc, they embody freshness, finesse, and a deep sense of place. Here’s a closer look at their offerings:

Red Wines

Cabernet Franc – Classic Bourgueil: These wines are marked by aromas of red and black fruits—cherries, raspberries, and currants—layered with floral notes and a touch of graphite. On the palate, they balance bright acidity with supple tannins, delivering elegance and length.

Aged and Reserve Cuvées: From older vines and select parcels, these wines show greater depth and complexity, with dark fruit, spice, and earthy undertones. Structured yet refined, they age gracefully, developing savory nuances and silky texture over time.

Rosé Wines

Cabernet Franc Rosé: Light, fresh, and vibrant, with flavors of wild strawberries and citrus zest. Crisp acidity and a dry, mineral-driven finish make it a refreshing expression of the Loire Valley.

Domaine Guion’s wines are defined by purity and restraint, made with minimal cellar intervention to let the terroir speak. Their balance of freshness, minerality, and subtle structure makes them both versatile at the table and faithful to Bourgueil’s tradition. These are wines of authenticity, crafted with patience and respect for the land.
