Sa Vignobles BrumontEstimated delivery between 20 and Nov 22,

When Alain Brumont came across a parcel of grey clay, mostly found in Pomerol, he decided to plant Merlot and combine it with Tannat. The result is a wine with discreet tannins that marries the exuberance of the fruit and the depth of the Tannat with the elegance of the Cabernet Sauvignon. depth of Tannat with the velvety structure of Merlot.
