A lovely Bordeaux Supérieur that combines body and fruit, the result of expertly executed winemaking and aging (12 months in oak barrels). A very fruity red, well-rounded with good length. Its aging lends it a subtle, very pleasant woody note. A serious Bordeaux that’s certainly worth a few Médocs...
