Blended like a great Bordeaux, Cuvée Elu is an astonishing wine, with great depth of aroma and flavor, on coconut, blackberry and toasty-woody notes. Elegant, supple and finely balanced, with an explosion of ripe fruit and smooth tannins on the finish, this wine is not to be missed. A discovery from the Americas!
