France Breton is coming to town!!! (well, CITIZEN actually.)

Domaine (Catherine, Pierre, France & Paul) Breton is synonymous throughout the Loire Valley and the world with Cabernet Franc, literally and figuratively as ‘Breton’ is a local term for the variety. Having dedicated the better part of the last 40 years to growing wine biodynamically the Breton family has made their mark on the styles of the region in Chinon, Bourgueil and Vouvray and through the world of natural wine. Their commitment to growing and crafting wines of place is second to none and we are thrilled to welcome France Breton to Ottawa to share with us the stories of her family’s domaine.

Reservations available now through Resy (link in bio)
