Opinion

Journalist

“Even though this is a Blaye wine, It reminds me more of a Margaux. Not to mention that it has a wonderful price/quality ratio. It is not a very complex wine but extremely well made. Intense floral notes of violet and a spicy black pepper bouquet. The palate reveals smoky aromas, tobacco notes, red fruits and well integrated tannins. This is an easy drinking wine.” Arvi Wines

The estate team

Nose of roasted juice combined with citrus and rosemary. Freshness is present and balances the power of the clay. Taut but broad and rich.
