This red wine embodies the elegance of Saint-Émilion. Its deep ruby color shines, and the aroma is a complex intertwining of black cherry and cassis with nuances of spice and damp forest. On the palate, smooth tannins support a firm structure, and the richness of the fruit and the acidity are beautifully balanced. Even after long aging, it still exudes lively energy, with a subtle oak aroma and minerality on the finish. This elegant taste is the fruit of traditional brewing techniques and carefully selected grapes.
Owning & Enjoying

Tasting notes
Its deep ruby red color is evident. The aroma is complex, with notes of ripe black cherry and cassis, along with subtle spices, tobacco, and nuances of damp forest. On the palate, the powerful yet smooth tannins provide a firm structure, with a superb balance of rich fruit and acidity. From the mid-palate to the finish, subtle oak aromas and minerality blend elegantly, and the long, lingering finish accentuates its elegance. This wine has excellent aging potential, and will gain even more depth over the next 10 to 20 years.
