Owner's word
On the palate there is a vibrant and frank attack, bolstered by a generous Merlot and a Cabernet Franc that is full of freshness. The perfectly integrated tannins caress the palate with a silky texture. The finish is remarkably long, precise, and pure.  The 2023 vintage represents the perfect harmony between aromatic freshness, elegance and complexity.
