Gault & Millau

With an intense, crystal-clear, and brilliant ruby color, this lovely Haut-Médoc offers intense aromas of black and red fruits on the nose. Full-bodied and generous on the palate, with good structure, this red wine leaves a deeply aromatic finish. Without a doubt, a first-rate second wine!

Guide des Vins Gault & Millau

Wine rated (2014 guide) 15/20 (Very good)

About the wine:

The expected lightness of a second wine. Lovely red fruit, suppleness, and approachability are the true strengths of this “big sister” to the first wine. Its delightful velvety texture is a real treat.
