Ashy berries, orange zest, currants, chili chocolate and a touch of black pepper. Juicy and fine-grained on the palate with medium to full body and a succulent finish. Fresh and pretty lengthy. Drink or hold.

This small estate in the heart of Pauillac has produced a perfumed, polished wine. Wood aging and black fruits are still prominent and need to soften. It is a fine wine from this major appellation.

Sleek and fresh, with lilac and violet notes leading the way, followed by a taut core of red currant and damson plum coulis laced with singed cedar and alder. Delivers a nice echo of earth through the pleasantly rustic finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
