What could be better than tasting this wine at the château and hearing about its history from an exceptional winemaker like David BERNARD?

A very good Saint-Emilion that's a pleasure to drink with main courses. But it's not as good as the one with the beeswax cork.

Gourmand and fleshy. Don't forget to decant for at least 45 minutes!

A pretty Saint Emilion, based on Cabernet Franc, that breaks the mould.
