"A beautiful garnet-red color, the wine's initial nose offers vegetal notes of blackcurrant buds. After aeration, spicy notes of pepper and licorice appear, accompanied by blackberry. The palate is straightforward with good tension, and the fruit expresses itself with great freshness. The relatively dense structure unfolds on the mid-palate, providing a silky texture. The woody fruit finish leaves a pleasant impression." - Marie, Oenologue Premium Grands Crus
The 2024 vintage was tricky at the beginning and end of the vine cycle, but fortunately clement at stages decisive for quality. The hot, Sec and sunny summer favored a strong hydric constraint allowing fine ripening of tannins and good synthesis of anthocyanins. From the spring soil work to the harvest, the involvement of our teams and the performance of our tools enabled us to always be in action and never in reaction. This tailor-made approach has produced fresh, highly aromatic, fine and elegant wines, perfectly illustrating the Atlantic expression of the terroirs from which they come.
