The "Mephisto" by Domaine de l'Ecu is a red wine produced with 100% Cabernet Franc grapes. Refinement takes place for 15 months in terracotta amphora and old oak barrels. No clarification and filtration before being bottled. On the nose there are notes of red fruit, small thefts of the forest, enriched by hints of undergrowth and dried flowers. On the palate it is complex, full-bodied, warm, fleshy, with a pleasant freshness and lively tannins. Long finish for an extraordinary wine.
