Predominantly Merlot with Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine is sourced from sustainably farmed limestone and clay vineyards overlooking Saint-Émilion. The 2023 vintage reflects the estate’s philosophy of elegance over power, producing a refined Bordeaux with freshness, precision and impressive ageing potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe nose reveals aromas of black cherry, blackberry and ripe plum layered with violets, cedar, graphite and subtle baking spice. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with concentrated dark berry fruit supported by silky, fine-grained tannins and vibrant natural acidity. Notes of cocoa, crushed stone and savoury herbs unfold through a long, polished finish with excellent balance, purity and finesse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA beautifully crafted Right Bank Bordeaux that offers the pedigree of one of the region’s great winemaking families at exceptional value.
