The super-ripe aromas of cassis and currant leap from the glass, coloured with hints of mineral, smoke and spice. The texture is rich, almost fleshy, but despite the approachable feel on the palate, the fine-grained tannins carry this along to a lingering, satisfying finish. This excels its peers in finesse and elegance. Produced from a 1.21ha, domaine-owned parcel. After fermentation with a significant portion of whole clusters, the wine is aged 18 months in cask, 60% new.
