Alcohol 13.5%

APPEARANCE
Elegant and refined ruby colour.

NOSE
Fragrant nose of lavender, dark cherries, cassis, cloves and sandalwood.

PALATE
Velvety and seamless, with complex layers of ripe fruit, spice and flowers. The fruits and tannins are balanced, well-structured. It has typical Saint-Emilion prettiness, freshness, elegance, and a salty minerality, too. All underpinned by very fine tannins.

AGEING
Aged for 10 months in wood.

PAIRING
Like many Saint-Émilion, it goes really well with beef, burger with cheddar and bacon and mature cheeses.

READINESS FOR DRINKING
Drink now but it will be worth ageing too.
