Winemaker's Tasting Notes
Four generations have produced wines that are as close as possible to nature and the terroirs. The estate, which spans 21 ha today, is managed by Thomas and his father Jean-Marc, who have grown certified organic since the 2013 vintage. A luminous ruby ​​color dresses it with elegance. After airing, intense aromas of warmly ripened berries emerge. A tonic attack introduces a rich and creamy palate, combining fruity flavors and docile tannins in perfect harmony. The finish, all in fruit, is of a striking length.

Stalky smoky aromas open a wine that is spicy, smoky from wood and full of red fruits. The wine is light with acidity as well as a layer of crisp tannins.

Vintage on this wine could roll on future orders.
