About this winery

Three generations ago, Belgian brewers established themselves in the Bourgeais region. Michel Cosyns obtained his oenology degree from the University of Bordeaux; his son Pierre-Henri, who started out as a business engineer in the Ile-de-France region, finally decided to continue the estate acquired by his parents in 1969; he obtained his oenology degree before taking charge of the property in 2007: 24 ha - organically farmed since 2009.

Nose of ripe fruits with empyreumatic notes (torrefaction). Frank attack with a good volume in mouth. Powerful with spicy returns and a silky tannic frame.

Tasting notes

Sustained color and creamy texture, very marked purplish reflections. Nose of very ripe fruits with empyreumatic notes (torrefaction). The attack is frank with a good volume in mouth. A powerful wine with spicy returns and a silky tannic structure. Return on blackberry, violet and roasted wood.
