Assembly : 82% cabernet sauvignon - 10% merlot - 8% cabernet franc. vinification : manual harvest. Traditional cultivation. Traditional Médoc vinification in stainless steel vats with temperature control. Wines are aged in oak barrels for 16 to 20 months. TASTING : A beautiful, deep ruby color. A racy, complex nose with hints of blackcurrant and cedar wood. Powerful, tight and rich on the palate, with a slightly strict side in the style of the great Pauillac wines. It's accessible in its youth, but it's usually after twenty years or so that it expresses its full potential.
