The best effort in many a year (maybe ever) from this estate located near Bordeaux's airport, this property is on the rebound, as evidenced by recent vintages. Sweet tobacco, red as well as black currant and cherry, along with some earth/soil undertones emerge from this richly fruity, dark ruby/purple-colored wine. It is medium-bodied, elegant, and exceptionally pure.
Pretty aromas of crushed berries, with smoke and raspberries. Full-bodied, with soft and round tannins and a generously fruity aftertaste. Delicious.
