Emotion

Les Bâtisseurs stands out as the signature cuvée of Domaine de la Chapelle. On the vineyard's oldest soils, composed of flinty clay and marl, the Cabernet Franc grapes produce a rare, delicate fruit. Single plot vinification in cement vats and long ageing in 400 L barrels, also performed separately for each plot, protect this delicate fruit while adding depth to the wine.

A wine of exacting standards and patience, Les Bâtisseurs takes its name from the noble art of building, in a nod to the owner's other activities.
