Balanced, easy to drink, and harmonious.” (Le Guide des Vins Bettane & Desseauve) It has everything it takes to please! A wine that just keeps getting better.

About the wine:
Made primarily from Cabernet Sauvignon (60%), this wine is still young and its tannins remain firm. However, it is well-rounded and aromatic enough to soon reveal its elegance.
About the estate:
Planted in the mid-1980s on gravelly soil that belonged to Montesquieu in the 18th century, this vineyard is managed by Éric Perrin, who also oversees Carbonnieux.

Wine Spectator
Wine rated (2019 guide) 90/100 (Very good wine)
About the wine:
Ripe and rounded on the palate, with polished notes of plum and blackcurrant, accented by savory hints of red meat—specifically, a subtly grained flat iron steak—that linger throughout the clean, elegant finish.
