Tasting notes
Commented by Olivier Poussier in the January 2025
Color : A beautiful intense ruby hue.
Nose : The nose is open, and the fruit is expressive. The fruit, while not jammy, conveys a certain sweetness. Burlat cherry, spice, violet, and pepper represent the aromatic profile of this cuvée.
Palate : The palate is ample and round, with well-integrated tannins. This wine is harmonious and unifying.
Service temperature : 14°C / 57°F
Awards
93/100
James Suckling: "A serious wine for this appellation that is often regarded as being all about aroma and fruit fresness. Good concentration is married to restrained velvety tannins that are already beautifully integrated. Plenty of violet, black-cherry and raspberry aromas. A quite bold yet polished finish."
