Ratings: Le Figaro 14/20, Wine Spectator 88/100, Jancis Robinson 16/20
With a deep ruby color, this Cru Bourgeois reveals a beautiful balance between the velvety texture, suppleness, and roundness of the Merlot and the power, fruitiness, and structure of the Cabernet Sauvignon. It is a wine built for long-term aging, classic and very typical of its appellation. A sure bet!
