Established in 1931 by Franck's grandfather, the Balthazar family estate commenced bottling wines under their own label in 1980. The vineyard parcels undergo separate fermentation, incorporating stems, and the aging process takes place in demi-muids. The 'Cuvée Casimir' is a tribute to Franck's grandfather and undergoes fermentation with 100% whole bunches and native yeasts. The aromatic profile reveals red fruits on the nose, transitioning to a robust palate featuring cherries, red fruits, damp earth, and smoky notes. This culminates in a crisp and satisfying finish that fills the mouth with flavor.
