"An intense and open 1er cru

"A cuvée often featured in these pages, which hits the nail on the head with its 2019 version. An intense, open 1er cru, with sustained aromas of blackberry, lilac and vanilla. A supple attack preludes an ample, dense and long palate, underpinned by fine, silky tannins, centered on ripe red fruit. A wine for laying down ". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022)

About the wine:

Silky and beautifully balanced, it unfolds flavors of violet, raspberry, cherry and vanilla. Although sumptuous, this red is lively and elegant. Firms on the finish with an aftertaste infused with fruit and spice.
