Grégoire and Bénédicte Hubau are outliers among their Bordeaux neighbors: their personable style and commitment to low-intervention, “natural” winemaking are qualities you’d more likely expect from the friendly gangs of vignerons from the Beaujolais, Loire, or off-the-beaten-path Languedoc. Their terroir-driven Canon-Fronsac always satisfies my hankering for something comforting and out of the ordinary. A decade in bottle has softened this rouge into an open-knit, unbuttoned style of Bordeaux, beaming with aromas of bing cherry, anise, and violet. You’ll be happy to
serve it for a special occasion, or when you simply want to spoil yourself.
