Certified organic (Ecocert). Cabernet Franc planted on sandy clay over limestone soils just above the tuffeau-hewn cellar. Aged 24 months in 30-hl foudres and 500-litre barrels (15% new).
Dark and brooding with a black-fruit nuance. Plenty of depth. Firm but fine tannins. Lots of freshness. Great balance with everything in place. Should age handsomely. (JL)
