“Already featured in the 2018 edition with an outstanding rating, Olivier Depardon returns with a Régnié full of charm and harmony. To achieve this, he destemmed his grapes and then aged the wine briefly in tanks. The aromatic profile reveals intense notes of well-ripened red and black fruits, with a hint of spice as a bonus. The palate, equally rich in fruit, is full-bodied, round, and long, supported by silky, refined tannins.” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2019) A true delight for the palate!
