" This bouquet is interesting; I detect different facets with a chalky touch, spices, and notes of blueberries. On the palate the wine has class and is endowed with tight but well-integrated tannins. Good fruity intensity right through to the finish."Francis Carle - Our Cellar Master, AOP Haut-Médoc - Cru Bourgeois Grape Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon: 30%; Merlot: 60%; Petit Verdot: 10% Vineyard Management: Traditional practices with green harvesting (leaf thinning and green harvesting); mechanical harvesting with destemming and on-board optical sorting; manual harvesting is carried out on young vines.
