    In a few words ...

    An estate that knows how to make the most of the Pauillac terroir. A classic regional blend producing wines of great structure.

    Gault & Millau

    Gault & Millau Critique professionnel

    "Fruits noirs, réglisse pour un nez manquant un peu de profondeur. Matière moyenne, beau grain avec de la suavité et de la fraîcheur et une finale un peu tannique. Le tout devra s’harmoniser avec le temps."

    Tasting notes

    Appearance

    Dense, dark garnet color, drawing on purple in its youth.

    Aroma

    The bouquet consists of black and red fruits, roasting, licorice and leather.

    Wine Empyreumatic | Fruity | Spicy

    Taste

    The Pauillacs are vigorous and tannic, which softens with age which allows the tannins to melt and give a nice and round structure.

    Tasted as an accompaniment to a pheasant hunter, it's already a real treat!
