Description:
Vinification: in new Oak barrels for 6-10 months.Tasting note: fine amber-red with extremely pleasant touches of preserved fruit on the nose. Fruity, powerful and munchy, with a remarkable balance, the tannins blossoming smoothly and pleasantly in the aftertaste.
From the area to the east of St-Emilion, this wine can be compared favourably with some of the St-Emilions. Full of tannins when young, but developing a spicy, treacly nose after a few years in bottle. (6 x 75 cl)
