Rare enough to be highlighted, this Saint-Emilion is 100% Merlot! It has an evolved nose, with notes of truffle, plum and liquorice. The palate opens with plenty of fruit and freshness, without any harshness. The finish is greedy, with a hint of acidity that testifies to its excellent ageing potential. A very fine wine, in a sought-after vintage, which is tasting very well today! Delivery in wooden cases for orders delivered in France of 6 bottles of this wine.
