Tasting

This cuvée brings out the soul of the limestone terroir where it matured and the
unique personality of Merlot. The nose subtly blends black and red fruits, liquorice and notes of
freshness. The palate is characterized by a very nice balance between roundness, density and liveliness,
supported by a complex aromatic palette (blackberry, morello cherry, discreet woodiness...).

Technical

The grapes for this vintage come from the unique “Les Gendres” plot, on a limestone terroir. Great care is taken in the production of this wine, the harvest of which was done manually. The plot is managed in organic farming: working the soil, no weedkillers or chemical fertilizers, respect for natural ecosystems. Breeding takes place 50% in new barrels and 50% in barrels that have already received a wine. 12 months in barrels on lees with stirring.
