"A beautifully defined bouquet, where intensity and subtlety go hand in hand! Just like the spicy and fruity nuances that come together. A veritable melting pot where everything comes together. The wine reveals itself step by step, in a relevant and convincing manner. In the mouth, the palate assumes the promises of the bouquet with serenity and sovereignty. It shines with balance, power and precision. A wine of character that underlines the ability of the grape variety, and of the winemaker, to produce great wines. Both are brilliant. (Yves Beck 2023)

About the wine:
Very well-defined bouquet, where intensity and subtlety go hand in hand! Just like the spicy and fruity nuances that come together. A veritable melting pot where everything comes together. The wine reveals itself step by step, in a relevant and convincing manner. In the mouth, the palate assumes the promises of the bouquet with serenity and sovereignty. It shines with balance, power and precision. A wine of character that underlines the ability of the grape variety, and the winemaker, to produce great wines. Both are brilliant. 2025-2034
