Owner's words
The robe is a beautifully bright, intense crimson colour. After swirling, there are pure aromas of red fruit, quickly enveloped in notes of violet. The palate is juicy, energetic and precise. Smooth tannins bring a pleasant velvety sensation. The oak, discreet and well-integrated, completes the already rich aromatic palette. There is a feeling of freshness and elegance throughout. A real revelation in this vintage where both the vine grower's hard work and careful extraction during vinification were essential.
