The Story
A magnificent Saint-Émilion Premier Grand Cru Classé offering layers of blackberry, cassis, violet, graphite, crushed stone, and licorice. Powerful yet graceful, its silky tannins and vibrant freshness deliver remarkable precision, depth, and exceptional aging potential.
Food Pairing: Pair with beef Wellington, roast lamb, venison, duck breast, truffle dishes, aged Comté, or wild mushroom risotto.
99 Points - James Suckling
Wonderful aromas of fresh flowers, blackberries and cherries. Licorice and lilacs, too. Full-bodied, yet so tight and refined, translucent and weightless. Incredible purity and excellence. This is the heart and soul of the property in a glass. Really pinpointed at the end. Enchanting and thought-provoking. Needs time to open and soften. Try after 2028.
96 Points - Wine Enthusiast
A structured, elegant wine at the top of its form. It has ripe blackberry fruits, a rich texture and a fine future. Solid but with a fine style, the wine will be ready from 2027. Roger Voss
