Note di degustazione
An excellent blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, this wine offers attractive value for its superb quality. The wine has a dense ruby/purple color, nice cedary blackcurrant fruit, medium body and surprisingly soft, well-integrated tannins. This sleeper of the vintage should drink nicely for 5-8 years.

Vanilla-laced dark fruit. More cedary on the palate. Rich, chewy and satisfying with very soft finish. (JH)
Inky core. Lifted inviting dark fruit aroma. Smells cool and fresh. Tastes that way too. Tannins are dryish but ripe enough, sandy and yet gently fluid. Sustained. (JH)

Situated on a gravel outcrop on the banks of the Gironde, this property has 94 hectares under vine, producing reliably consistent, traditionally styled Claret that really delivers for the price.
