FREDERIC MABILEAU
Domaine Frédéric Mabileau is one of the Loire Valley’s most respected estates, renowned for producing exceptional Cabernet Franc wines that express the diversity and character of the region’s finest terroirs. Based in Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil, the family-owned domaine has become a benchmark producer for organic and sustainably farmed wines in the Loire Valley.
Founded by Frédéric Mabileau, the estate quickly earned international acclaim for its commitment to quality, environmental stewardship, and vineyard-focused winemaking. Today, the domaine continues under the guidance of the Mabileau family, preserving its reputation for crafting elegant, expressive wines that showcase the unique identity of Loire Valley Cabernet Franc.
The vineyards are situated across Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil, Bourgueil, and Chinon, where diverse soils of gravel, sand, limestone, and clay contribute distinctive characteristics to each wine. These terroirs allow Cabernet Franc to achieve exceptional balance, freshness, and aromatic complexity while maintaining the elegance that defines the Loire Valley style.
Frédéric Mabileau is particularly renowned for its Cabernet Franc wines, which display aromas of red cherry, blackberry, raspberry, violet, fresh herbs, graphite, and subtle spice. On the palate, the wines are vibrant and refined, combining silky tannins, bright acidity, and remarkable purity of fruit. The estate produces both approachable expressions and more structured cuvées capable of long-term ageing.
Organic viticulture is central to the domaine’s philosophy, with vineyard practices focused on biodiversity, soil health, and sustainable farming. Minimal intervention in the cellar ensures that each wine reflects its vineyard origin and vintage character with authenticity and precision.
In addition to its acclaimed red wines, the estate also produces elegant Loire Valley white and rosé wines that highlight the freshness and versatility of the region.
Today, Domaine Frédéric Mabileau is regarded as one of the Loire Valley’s leading producers, crafting wines that are highly sought after by sommeliers, collectors, and enthusiasts of fine French wine.
