18 months aging in barrel and cistern.  Excellent black fruit definition – cassis, blackberry, plum – plus plentiful clove spice and high, traditional tannic punch on the palate. This is full of heft and flavour and interest.

Spreads over 14 hectares on clay soil with limestone and sand. The cold terroir leads to a slow-maturing grape, hence a very aromatic grape flavour produced.

This vintage of cold maturity, very late, finally gives rise to wines with a classic profile. The grapes, healthy at the time of the harvest, nevertheless displayed high values in terms of tannins and sufficient alcoholic degrees, all perfectly balanced by a well-preserved acidity. All the trick then consisted in carrying out extractions measured in order to respect this crunch of fruit.
