Appellation: Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, Bordeaux, France

Blend: 60% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc. The wine is matured for around 20–22 months, with part of the Cabernet Franc aged in large oak foudres to enhance freshness and elegance.

Tasting Notes
Colour: Deep, vibrant purple.
Nose: Black cherry, blackberry, plum, violets, graphite, mint, rose petals and subtle spice.
Palate: Medium to full-bodied with silky, refined tannins. Concentrated dark fruit is balanced by fresh acidity, mineral notes and a long, perfumed finish. The 2023 vintage is noted for its precision, freshness and elegance rather than sheer power.
