2*Étoiles
Hachette
“This red wine is a true success, with an intense color and an elegant nose of fresh fruit and violets—a testament to meticulous work in the vineyard and gentle extraction in the tank. The palate opens with notes of cherry clafoutis and reveals a full-bodied, generous texture, underscored by smooth tannins and a finish full of sweetness. A wine that evokes the pleasure of lunchtime under the arbor. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022)
