"Grown on clay-limestone soils planted with sixty-five-year-old vines, this Bourgueil displays an impressive bouquet of ripe black and red fruits. On the palate, it is very well-structured and refreshing, supported by fine, velvety tannins and rounded off by a long, delicious, fruity finish." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2018)
