"A safe bet at a low price
" A soft, delicate red with berry scents, light chocolate and earthy aromas and flavors. Medium body. Juicy, savory finish. Drink now." (James Suckling - 2021) This cuvée is a tribute to the generations of winemakers who preceded the Chardat family on these lands. The wine admirably expresses the beautiful terroir of Lacaussade. A little gem!

Note and review by M. STEPHANE V. Published on 16/08/2022
A typical blaye, well made, with all the roundness of merlot, chocolate aromas, could gain in length on the palate but at 9 euros it's a nice bottle.
