Tasting note:
The nose is balanced with notes of red and black fruits, accompanied by some smoke and tobacco. It is juicy and masculine on the palate. The tannins are excellently integrated and of the highest quality.
Tasting note:
The extraordinary thing about this wine is its character. It has the aroma of a great, noble Bordeaux, it has something sublime about it. This wine with its flavours of concentrated dark, almost black fruit, the fine herbal nuances, the spice of liquorice, eucalyptus, vanilla, rose scent and dark chocolate give it its stately complexity. The size of this Red wine from France is evident in all individual aspects: in the structure, in the finish, in the exceptional flavour.

- Management: The estate continues to be managed by the experienced general manager Véronique Dausse.
