Gold Medal at the Lyon International Competition

"Contrasting with the intensity of the color, still young with its purple highlights, the bouquet is quite discreet, but it presents a good balance between red fruits and wood (spices). Supple on the attack, the substance promises good evolution over time thanks to its tannic presence." (Guide Hachette des Vins - 2020 Edition)

Hachette Wine Guide

Guide Hachette des vins

Wine noted (guide 2020) 1*Star (Very successful wine)

About wine:

Contrasting with the intensity of the color, still young with its purple highlights, the bouquet is fairly discreet, but shows a good balance between red fruits and wood (spices). Supple on the attack, the substance promises good development over time thanks to its tannic presence.

James Suckling

James Suckling

Wine rated (2019 guide) 91/100

About wine:

Attractive ripe black berries with rich, toasty spices leading to a very fleshy, succulent palate carrying a long, smooth, supple range of bright, robust tannins. Long and mellow.

Yves Beck

Yves Beck

Wine rated (2018 guide) 88/100

About wine:

Garnet red. Bouquet of good intensity, pleasant freshness. Smoky and fruity notes. Balanced character on the palate. The wine is juicy, delicious and has a lively and refreshing structure. The tannins remain in the background but are assured. A wine that needs to gain in suppleness and shows promise. Fruity finish.
