Rating from the Hachette Wine Guide: 2** (Remarkable Wine) + Editor's Choice
“Red, rosé, white: a winning trio for this flagship cuvée of the appellation, with the red earning our Editor’s Choiceand coming close to a third star. The presentation is flawless, with a clear, intense red color and violet highlights. The nose, very open, evokes ripe fruit (blackcurrant, blackberry) enhanced by lovely vanilla notes without excess. The palate, sumptuous from the first sip, reveals surprisingly refined tannins, intense fruitiness, and plenty of volume and richness. A wine of great class, powerful and aromatic, to be enjoyed now or in three to four years. " (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2012)

A few years later, it has proven to be excellent... Initially rated a 2, it deserves a 4 this year, now that it has reached its full potential.

An excellent red wine with plenty of charm; decant it 2 to 3 hours in advance and serve it in a carafe.
