Ask about this wine

Cellaring is counted from the vintage and depends on storage conditions.

The parcel

This cuvée brings together Les Boutières, Les Citernes and Les Combes. The slopes are gentle and the soils deep, sometimes reaching one metre.

Soil Deep, iron-rich soils

Winemaking & ageing

Grapes arrive in small crates and are sorted before vatting. Fermentation lasts around fifteen days with punch-downs, followed by barrel ageing with 20% new oak. Bellows-assisted racking limits handling.

Tasting notes

Powerful and firm when young, this garnet-coloured wine develops red-fruit aromas. Its texture rounds out with time.

At the table

Game, coq au vin or mature cheeses.
