2*Coup de Coeur

Hachette

“This 2015 vintage comes from young vines harvested by hand in early September, destemmed and macerated for fifteen days. With a majestic ruby color, its nose blends red fruits (cherry and raspberry) with peppery notes, nuanced with vanilla, licorice, and menthol. Harmony is already evident on the palate: luscious, rich, and full-bodied, it is supported by silky tannins and a lingering finish. Concentration and the nobility of the terroir characterize this bottle, which is built for aging.” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2019)
