Terroir
Light schist and gneiss soils on a granitic bedrock.

Traditional long fermentation, then the wine ages around 8 months in vats and French oak casks (10% new oak).
Visits
Colour: Deep bright garnet.
Nose: Very seductive. Fruity expression with blackcurrant and violet flower notes. With a bit of bottle ageing, these will evolve towards some leathery and liquorice notes.
Palate: Generous and dense with fine tannins. Very harmonious, without being too corpulent.
To serve
Best served around 16-17°C.
Aging potential
Perfect to drink now, but can keep 10 to 15 years.
