Description
Winemakers: Luc Schweitzer and sons (Ludovic & Richard).
"Pristine definition of pure and driving damson, cherry and plum, with understated vanilla oak. Deep and long, the palate reveals a cascade of fleshy black fruits, fine-grained tannins and fruit-bonded acidity. Lovely stuff." Decanter 95/100
- Clay-limestone, gravelly soil
- 89% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Malbec
- Long ageing period, partially in oak barrels. Regular quality controls during vinification. Few racking and manipulations before bottling. The objective is to preserve all the aromatic complexity of the wine.
