“Grown on clay-limestone soils planted with 65-year-old vines, this Bourgueil displays an impressive bouquet of ripe black and red fruits. On the palate, it is very well-structured and exceptionally fresh, supported by fine, velvety tannins and rounded out by a long, savory, fruity finish. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2018)
