"Atypical!"
Produced without maceration and with low yields, this rare grape variety created in 1855 will intrigue fans of atypical wines! The palate is on the same register as the nose, exuberant with very ripe black berries (blackcurrant, blueberry), notes of resin and eucalyptus. A delicious, suave wine of restrained power, combining vinosity, liveliness and velvety tannins. A must-try!
