Product notes
A harvest at full maturity of the grapes has allowed us to conduct vinification gently to magnify the expression of the fruit. Subtle aging with wood for 9 months and in stainless steel tanks. Beautiful garnet color. The nose is very expressive with black fruit aromas (blackberry and blackcurrant) associated with toasted and slightly vanilla notes. In the mouth, this wine is round and supple, with a good structure enhanced by delicate tannins.

A harvest at full ripeness of the grapes allowed for a gentle vinification to magnify the expression of the fruit. Then a subtle ageing with wood during 9 months and in stainless steel tanks came to enrich the aromatic palette in order to increase the greediness of this Medoc.
