Aged for three years in a mix of small, large, and old barrels, this wine is impressive. Its smoky licorice aromas and powerful tannins attest to its concentration. A blend of mainly Tannat and the two Cabernets, this wine is bursting with black plum aromas, enhanced by a still-young acidity. Drink from 2026." (Wine Enthusiast 2025).

About the wine:
Initially marked by a hint of reduction, the 2020 vintage gradually reveals aromas of blackberry, cedar, blackcurrant leaf, and clove. Medium-bodied to full-bodied and very well structured, this flavorful and concentrated wine will benefit from a few more years in a cool cellar to reach its full expression.
