    In a few words ...

    The domaine offers wines of exceptional character and amplitude. The tannins are present and well-balanced, while the structure is taut. "A vintage worthy of the greatest years, where everything comes together: The freshness and balance of this vintage combine with the brilliance of the fruit and its velvety texture". Jean-Jacques Bonnie - Château Malartic Lagravière

    Le Figaro

    Le Figaro Vin

    "A well-balanced wine, still restrained, aromatic despite everything and with quite a bit of punch on the palate."

    Tasting notes

    Appearance

    The wines have a dense but lighter robe than the medoc. The hue is ruby ​​with a touch ranging from purple to brick depending on the evolution.

    Aroma

    The bouquet is often fruity, with currant and other red and black fruits to which are added smoked or roasted notes.

    Wine Floral | Fruity | Spicy

    Taste

    Composed on average of 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, the red wines of Pessac-Léognan make a good compromise between marked tannins and the greediness of the fruit. We thus find red and ripe fruits, and empyreumatic notes.
