This exceptional wine boasts dense fruitiness and a delicate structure. The aromas of plum, cassis, spices, and subtle leather and earth blend together, and the harmony of smooth tannins and refreshing acidity is impressive. While it has the potential for aging, its deep flavor makes it enjoyable now and captivating, making it a wine worthy of its Grand Cru designation.

Owning & Enjoying

Tasting notes
Deep ruby color.

The glass reveals concentrated aromas of black cherry and cassis, with complex nuances of violet, clove, licorice and undergrowth.

On the palate, the rich flavor of ripe black fruits spreads, while the supple, fine tannins tighten the overall flavor.

The acidity is lively, giving the wine a delicate elegance within its power.

This Grand Cru has great aging potential, with a long-lasting finish of truffles, mocha and a slight minerality.

Pairing
