This flagship cuvée is made from century-old vines, on land entirely shaped by human hands. This southern red wine delivers beautiful notes of red and black fruits enhanced by roasted notes. The palate is dense with generous substance and powerful tannins refined by time. A mineral touch brings a beautiful balance, allowing the spicy notes to resonate in a long finish. Signature terroir!

2013 vintage drunk at the end of 2019. Superb aromas of red fruit and a very pleasant and surprising velvety texture.
