Jancis Robinson

Only two plots on the estate survived the phylloxera epidemic. These vines, which are over 130 years old, produce a subtle wine with complex aromas of wildflowers, red berries, and fine spices. The wine’s elegance lies in the harmony between concentration, balance, and length. A truly beautiful wine that should be decanted before serving.

Wine rated (2015 guide) 17/20

About the wine:

Pale ruby. Fragrant red fruit, delicately spiced, with mineral notes. The palate is supple, almost refined, playful, and long. The firm tannins currently dominate the finish slightly. Elegant and long.
