“A vibrant, rich wine, the result of authentic expertise”

“Polychrome because it blends a variety of grape varieties: Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The appellation’s primary grape varieties contribute their distinct nuances to this fine vintage, as does 15 months of aging in large-capacity barrels. Tasters praise its dark, youthful color; its dense, complex, and refined nose of ripe fruit, with black cherry at the forefront; and its smooth, full-bodied, and deep palate, where black fruit notes are combined with well-integrated oak. It has character and potential.” (Le Guide Hachette 2026).

About the wine:

It is a polychromatic wine because it blends a variety of grape varieties: Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The appellation’s primary grape varieties contribute their distinct nuances to this beautiful vintage, as does 15 months of aging in large-capacity barrels. Tasters praise its dark, youthful color; its dense, complex, and refined nose of ripe fruit, with black cherry at the forefront; and its smooth, full-bodied, and deep palate, where black fruit notes blend with well-integrated oak. It has character and potential.

About the estate:

Charles Blanc’s parents, originally from Saint-Émilion and Cognac and themselves the children of winemakers, purchased this estate—which had been established in 1917—in 1978. Their son took over the property in 2001 after training in Sancerre and New Zealand. He retained only the best parts of his vineyard—which now covers 4.7 hectares—replanted eight grape varieties, trees, and hedgerows, adopted organic farming, and is committed to “de-mechanizing” his practices to achieve greater precision.
