"Sulfite-free and vegan!"

Only with special attention has this wine found the way to its true nature: deep, it shimmers with unbridled aromas of cherry, raspberry, rhubarb and violet. Pure, lively, it expresses the richness and smoothness of the clay soils from which it comes. What fruit!

About the domain :

A vast 92-hectare vineyard in the Entre-deux-Mers region, founded in 1920 by the great-grandparents. Its assets: a state-of-the-art winery completed in 2016 and the complementary skills of Christophe Vincent (in the vines) and Fabien (in the winery). Saint-Vincent inspires them, they say, but it's their advanced technical training and exacting standards that make this estate a benchmark in Bordeaux and Bordeaux Supérieur.

Note and review by M. GILLES D. Published on 16/11/2022

A bold, modern Bordeaux. Admittedly, everything is not yet fully in place. Nevertheless, the substance is there, ample and thick, underpinned by fat, full-bodied tannins, soaked in ripe, greedy black fruit with good acidity. The mid-palate is stewed, fresh and strongly vanilla-flavored. A little brett on the finish, but not really unpleasant, as this is a "Nature" wine. Very inexpensive to buy. Good ambiance at 17° with two roasted pigeons with bacon and peas with shallots in the juice. Score 3.5.
