Notes: Guide Hachette 2** (Remarkable Wine), Bettane & Desseauve 14.5/20
“Very pleasant and very elegant, with a ripe and intensely fruity nose and a full-bodied, aromatic, and very fresh palate. ” (The Bettane & Desseauve Guide to French Wines 2012). A wine that develops over time, a red that is very “Graves”-like
