Its deep red color sets the tone. On the nose, we savor the aromatic intensity of red and black fruits, leather and elderberry. The palate is silky from the outset, then reveals a full, enveloping structure. Enjoy it with your autumn dishes.

About the domain :
Founded around 1850, this family-run estate has seen 6 successive generations. Following in the footsteps of his father Louis, Didier Barré, who settled here in 1983, contributed to the revival of Madiran, of which he was one of the standard-bearers. In 2017, sisters Claire and Marion Bortolussi (daughters of Alain Bortolussi of Ch. Viella) took over the destiny of this flagship 25-hectare estate, forging a partnership with wine merchant Lionel Osmin to manage the operation and market the cuvées.
