This wine is characterized by its aromas of ripe fruit and black currant liqueur, with floral notes (peony and old rose). Racy, balanced and fleshy, it gives even more after 7 years of cellaring, becoming enriched with delicious aromas of truffles.

Tasting notes

The team of the domain

The first tertiary aromas of undergrowth, humus and cooking juice appear. The fruit remains present with notes of plums in syrup. The attack is juicy and unctuous; the wine is round, relaxed and well balanced with smooth tannins. The final impression is one of greediness.
