"An intense and open premier cru"
"A cuvée often featured in these pages, which hits the mark with its 2019 vintage. An intense and open premier cru, displaying sustained aromas of blackberry, lilac, and vanilla. A supple attack preludes a full-bodied, dense, and long palate, underpinned by fine, silky tannins, centered on ripe red fruits. A wine made for aging. " (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022)

About wine:
Silky and beautifully balanced, it displays flavors of violet, raspberry, cherry, and vanilla. Although sumptuous, this red is also lively and elegant. It firms up on the finish with an aftertaste infused with fruit and spices.
