The vineyard nestles in the heart of the St Julien terroir among the most beautiful slopes of Garonne gravel, facing the Gironde river. The clayey gravel subsoil allows excellent growing conditions.
The harvesting is done entirely by hand, the wine is then aged between 16 and 18 months in French oak barrels of which 60% are brand new. The results are amazing, a lovely nose of ripe cherries, raspberries and grapefruit leap out of the glass. This is Opulent and rich, but with a glamour and classy side, showing restrained power and elegance on the palate.
This elegant, well balanced powerful wine is a great match for any dish that is robust and balanced.
