The grapes, grown on sloping vineyards primarily composed of limestone, are skillfully blended with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. Long-term oak aging enhances the rich fruitiness of ripe plum and black cherry, with complex nuances reminiscent of spice and truffle. The tannins are silky smooth yet the structure is robust, creating a classic style that will gain even more depth with age. A harmonious blend of richness and precision, this Saint-Émilion masterpiece will add elegance to any table.
Owning & Enjoying

Tasting notes
The wine's deep ruby red color reveals a subtle hint of orange on the rim as the glass is tilted, suggesting its maturity. The aroma features rich fruit notes of black cherry and plum, layered with complex, deep nuances reminiscent of violet, cedar, and truffle. On the palate, silky tannins unfold smoothly, harmonizing the rich fruit with the vanilla and spice aromas from the oak barrels. The wine's structure is firm and the acidity is well-maintained, suggesting its potential for long-term aging. The finish is long, with the umami flavors of ripe black fruit and a subtle minerality continuing slowly, leaving the drinker with a deep sense of satisfaction.
