“With a deep garnet color, this wine harmoniously blends berry notes with subtle hints of sweet spices imparted by aging. The oak is refined and respectful of the grape, resulting in a wine with a round, dense body supported by tannins that are present yet discreet. A beautiful balance. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2015)

About the wine:

With its deep garnet color, this wine harmoniously blends berry notes with subtle hints of sweet spices from its aging. The oak is subtle and respectful of the grape, resulting in a wine with a round, dense body supported by tannins that are present yet discreet. A beautiful balance.
