Tasting Notes
- **Appearance:** A deep, rich garnet hue.
- **Aroma:** A complex and pure bouquet of dark berries (blackberry, plum, cassis), subtle violet floral notes, licorice, and a sophisticated whisper of cedar and tobacco from barrel aging.
- **Taste:** Velvety and full on the palate, the wine presents a dense core of fruit framed by fine, supple tannins. It possesses a bright, mineral freshness that ensures a superb balance and structure for cellaring.
- **Conclusion:** An enduringly long and stylish finish, a hallmark of high-quality, biodynamically farmed Saint-Émilion.
Food Pairing & Decanting
This wine is an excellent candidate for the cellar but is also drinking beautifully now with an hour of decanting. Serve slightly below room temperature (16-18°C). It is the perfect accompaniment to a refined Sunday Roast or a classic game dish.
